Dear Educator,

Thank you for taking the time to engage with this self-assessment tool rooted in the principles of Universal Design. Your reflections are invaluable as they allow you to better understand your strengths and identify areas for growth in your teaching practice. The purpose of this tool is to support your professional development by helping you gain insights into your teaching strategies and explore opportunities for enhancement.

At the end of the process, you will receive personalized recommendations for professional development resources tailored to the areas you’ve identified for improvement.

Please note that, if the academic unit at your institution has established it, the data collected may also be used to support an internal diagnosis of the unit’s needs. If this applies, you will be informed during the test. For more details on our data practices, please refer to How We Use Your Data?

Before you begin, here’s a quick overview of the rating system you’ll use. Please refer to the following scale to respond to each statement:

1. Never:  Indicates a strong disagreement or a highly negative response.
2. Rarely:  Signifies disagreement or a negative stance.
3. Occasionally:  Represents a neutral position, neither for nor against.
4. Frequently:  Reflects agreement or a positive inclination.
5. Always:  Indicates a strong agreement or a highly positive response.

As you proceed, simply select the response that best matches your perspective. There are no wrong answers, we encourage you to answer thoughtfully and honestly, as your feedback is crucial in shaping improvements. If you have any questions or need clarification, don’t hesitate to reach us out.

Thank you for contributing to this process!
