This book shows how to move beyond our individual efforts to create systemic, at-scale methods for making inclusion everyone's business in higher education: in community colleges, trade schools, technical schools, further education, four-year colleges, and universities. I strongly recommend Adopting a UDL Attitude to campus and program leaders and practitioners everywhere.

In its support for inclusive practice for all it should be recommended reading for those involved in teaching and learning at all levels in higher education.

Whilst the title indicates it is a book for academia it's more so a book to inform practice for all educators in whatever guise level, or place of learning to reference when embedding UDL as core practice across the wider education sector. The authors challenge the reader to pursue a contemporary exploration, application, and adoption of UDL in HE but it becomes very clear that this is also the challenge for the whole of our education system, because inclusion is everyone business.
This book, promotes and encourages reflexive practice, not only of our practice as educators, researchers, strategists, policy implementers but also triggers reflection on our lived experience, our experience of equity, inclusion, diversity. This book says- Be Brave - Challenge- Bravely Challenge - rewire and reframe our thinking about our learning environments, challenge habits and beliefs, evolve teaching and learning practice.
