Continuing to track AI and UDL. Illuminate experiment from GOOGL fascinating approach turning academic papers into audio discussions very much like public radio interviews. Of course, transcription and translation would be an easy next step! #UDL #AI illuminate.withgoogle.com

Excited about the release of AI Pin and already thinking of so many possibilities it opens up for #UDL!! youtu.be/1H4SNFtEzys?si…

The good folks @CAST_UDL are eager for your feedback on the Full Draft of Proposed Updates for UDL Guidelines 3.0. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Nice look back at some accessibility and assistive technology triumphs of 2023 mashable.com/article/digita…

My mind's been racing since spring on all the possibilities of GenAI for UDL, especially now that ChatGPT Plus has gone multimodal. This video is a great demo of leveraging AI for greater accessibility. More to come! #a11y #UDL #accessibility youtu.be/WN8YpxQmb4g?si…

Stair free walking routes a great enabler for many! Plan to test this out in DC next week. mashable.com/article/google…

“We took accessibility considerations very seriously throughout the [dev] process and tried to bake it into the fundamental way we were working from a design perspective, ensuring that the product was as accessible as we could possibly make,” Slack SVP👏🏼 www-forbes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.forbes…

Important article in Psychology Today noting how disability is so often left out of the #Diversity conversation. …sychologytoday-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.psycho…

A nice sweep of assistive features coming to iOS. Particularly intrigued by Personal Voice and SLP professional-patient use case scenarios nr.apple.com/DH0h2r3ob4

Good to see gaming accessibility spread and elevate! "You need to ingrain within the team that we should always be thinking, what can we do to make this an enjoyable experience for everyone?" wired.com/story/japan-ga…

Excited to see this coming! UDL as such a great framework for inclusion and excellence across the institution! Strong potential to bring respective campus efforts together, eliminate siloing that can minimize deep change. @CAST_UDL

Great opportunity to learn and apply UDL deeply as pathway to a career in online and hybrid education or training fields! linkedin.com/posts/activity…

We are celebrating #UDLchat 's 10th year Wed. 5-3-23 9:00pm E/T. Please suggest questions here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… Please retweet - @GiftedBrenda @OhioGeg @Jhward85Jo @E_Sheninger @ksuding @poppygibsonuk @ReganLYates @SherryBirchem @UDL_Universe @ukedchat @CabriniSOE

@drnoahglaser Often so true! Worst was one time I received vegetarian meal of mac n cheese, roll, brownie! Can't imagine if I had tried vegan there.

Great when there is more universal design showing up via large manufactures and main retail. To be truly UD could have braille not just on special edition cars but all. Sighted kids unaware may simply think "now with grippy points"

When inclusion increasingly becomes a bad word through some state policies, we stand to lose so much progress, including from UDL efforts. #UDL #Inclusion #DEIA @CAST chronicle.com/article/how-ca…

Truth! So much power through leaning into the affective domain (engagement, motivation, passion, purpose, meaning, etc). Too often neglected in the typical educational experience.
