Western Carolina University

Many of our WCU faculty have welcomed UP participants in their classes and indicate WCU students also benefit from having them in their classes. The UP Program works hard to support and collaborate with the WCU faculty to modify assignments, give advice and support with the learning styles of participants, and help in monitoring progress to make course content meaningful for everyone.

 If you would like resources on how to modify courses or apply universal design for learning (UDL) principles, we have created UDL Training Modules, Resources for Faculty Working with UP Participants, and a course list of faculty/staff who have worked with UP participants in their classes. We also have a faculty liaison/outreach coordinator specializing in UDL principles and individuals with disabilities who is available to support your teaching and provide additional resources.
