How does neurodiversity shape teaching and learning? This workshop takes up that question with teaching staff and anyone interested in teaching.

This workshop will focus on what educators might need to consider if they would like to integrate a neurodiversity perspective into their teaching. This session will start with a presentation on neurodiversity and what it means (including related research on the topic), followed by the presentation of the Karolinska Institutet Designing neuroinclusive learning environments online Toolkit, which focuses on concrete and practical tools for educators. A few exercises and / or relevant aspects will be highlighted for participants.
