Event Overview Join the Global Google Educator Group (Global GEG) for “Built In, Not Bolted On: A Guide to UDL and Google Accessibility,” a focused session timed with Global Accessibility Awareness Day. Most teachers learn accessibility as a remediation task: add captions, fix the alt text, raise the contrast, all after the lesson is already built. This session flips that. This event will be hosted by one of the GEG Instructional Coaches leaders, Jeff Bradbury, and it will feature guests Dr. Rocco Catrone, BCBA-D, IBA, CPACC and Noa Minter. In this webinar, you will see what it looks like when Universal Design for Learning is the architecture and Google’s built-in accessibility features are the toolkit that fits inside it. You will leave with a practical UDL frame, a demo of accessibility features in Docs, Slides, and Meet, and a small set of conversation moves you can bring to your next teacher meeting. Host Jeffrey Bradbury Jeff Bradbury is an ISTE+ASCD 20 to Watch Award winner, digital learning strategist, and creator of the TeacherCast Educational Network. He currently serves as a Digital Media Teacher in the New Milford Public School District (CT) and Adjunct Instructor at Fort Hays State University. A Google Certified Innovator, Microsoft Innovative Educator, TEDx Speaker, and author of Impact Standards, Jeff is dedicated to helping educators save time and maximize their classroom impact. Guests Dr. Rocco Catrone Rocco Catrone (he/him) is a researcher and clinician with experience across hospitals, schools, job coaching, academia, in-home supports, clinics, and private practice. His work centers on inclusive, individual-led approaches to disability supports, informed by his own lived experience with multiple disabilities. Rocco collaborates to build environments of success grounded in respect, empowerment, and equity. Noa Minter Noa Minter, a UIC doctoral student and U.S. Army veteran, draws on lived experience as a 2e AuDHD researcher to address neurodevelopmental disabilities. By synthesizing neuroscience and ABA, Noa targets the cognitive-adaptive gap in twice-exceptional populations. The work operationalizes executive function and analyzes "spiky profiles" to develop precise supports. Noa translates mechanistic drivers into systemic policy to improve adult outcomes.
