This presentation will highlight the UDI Online Project at the University of Connecticut, a demonstration project "Ensure Students with Disabilities Receive a Quality Higher Education" through the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Postsecondary Education. UDI Online extends prior work in Universal Design for Instruction into online and technology blended learning environments. Highlighted activities include the results of a needs assessment of students and faculty at postsecondary institutions and the development of an e-toolbox for use by faculty in the planning, delivery, and assessment of online and blended courses.
