CAST’s UDL and AI Learning Community
CAST’s UDL and AI Learning Community is a collaborative space for educators, researchers, and practitioners to explore how artificial intelligence can support inclusive education through the lens of Universal Design for Learning. Hosted within our Mighty Networks community, it’s a place to share ideas, learn from others doing similar work, and think together about how to use AI in ways that are ethical, accessible, and equity focused. We’re looking at real-world practice, raising important questions, and generating ideas for implementation and research.
The community includes monthly Expert Talks, interactive meetings, virtual Design Studios, and a lively online feed where members can post resources, ask questions, and connect.

“CAST means community. At the beginning of my UDL journey, CAST was a space for me to test the waters to see if I was doing the ‘right thing’ at a time when I was afraid to share my UDL ideas/tried approaches with my colleagues, in case, I was getting it wrong. [...] It provides a safe and brave space to learn, ask questions, support and be supported, challenge and be challenged, and—most importantly—a place of lifelong friendships.” Margaret Flood, founder of Equity in Mind
