On #WorldScienceDay, we ask: How accessible are your STEM lessons? 🧪
Use Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to make every student a scientist. This means flexible options for how they learn (videos, models) & how they show mastery (presentations, reports).
UDL makes STEM for ALL!
A person looks up at a chalkboard with a brain illustration; one half has math formulas, the other is colorful paint splashes. Text reads, How inclusive is your STEM programme? with the SENIA logo.

Let's tune in to how our words shape our world. 🗣️
If we want genuine inclusion, we need to ensure our language aligns with our beliefs. SENIA has a vital resource to help us reflect on and shift away from common ableist language.

On World Mental Health Day, let's talk inclusion.
Belonging is vital for mental health. Yet, stigma and exclusion can lead to isolation and distress.

Let's create spaces where everyone feels safe, valued, and seen. Inclusion is about making room for all of us.
