As part of UCC EDI Week, UCC Library are providing a hands-on workshop around free / built in technologies to make reading, writing, and studying easier. These tools benefit all learners by enhancing accessibility and learning outcomes. Deirdre Madden from UCC Access will be leading the workshop. 

In line with the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, using these tools promotes inclusivity, ensuring that students with additional learning needs are not excluded.

This session will demonstrate how technology can support diverse learning needs and create a more accessible educational environment for everyone.

Bring your mobile device with you to take part.

This workshop is open to all. Deirdre would like to add, "This stuff is free!, It will make your work easier!, Come and learn how to use it!".

Space is limited so please register by clicking on the blue 'Register' button below. (Registration is free.)
