Exploring pre-service teachers’ beliefs and practices about two inclusive frameworks: Universal Design for Learning and differentiated instruction Hasselt University Ghent University
The interrelationship between UDL and DI has long been a topic of debate. This empirical study of pre service teachers has been carried out to explore underlying beliefs and practices about these two inclusive frameworks and to tap into their potential interrelationship. The results show that UDL and DI practices are different but highly interrelated. Both practices share important predictors (i.e., ongoing assessment, self-efficacy, ...
Higher education students with disabilities speaking out: perceived barriers and opportunities of the Universal Design for Learning framework Hasselt University Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework offers a promising strategy to address the needs of higher education students with disabilities; UDL aims to support access, participation and progress for all' learners, resulting in more accessible learning environments. The objective of this qualitative study is to explore whether UDL addresses the learning needs of students with disabilities effectively. Findings suggested that students' ...
Toward More Inclusive Education: An Empirical Test of the Universal Design for Learning Conceptual Model Among Preservice Teachers Hasselt University Ghent University Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) holds considerable promise to create inclusive educational environments. Nevertheless, the most recent theoretical UDL model, which includes both teachers' philosophy and praxis of teaching, has never been tested empirically. Therefore, this study aims to validate the UDL model as a "whole" among preservice teachers. Results show that the three philosophical constructs of UDL predict the performance of ...
A machine learning approach for the design of hyperbranched polymeric dispersing agents based on aliphatic polyesters for radiation‐curable inks Hasselt University
Polymeric dispersing agents were prepared from aliphatic polyesters consisting of ⊐-undecalactone (UDL) and ⊎,⊐-trimethyl-ε-caprolactones (TMCL) as biobased monomers, which were polymerized in bulk via organocatalysts. Graft copolymers were obtained by coupling of the polyesters to poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) in the bulk without using solvents. Various parameters that influence the performance of the dispersing agents in pigment-based UV-curable ...
