CUTLAS
Creating Universal Teaching, Learning & Assessment Strategies

CUTLAS is a team-based approach to creating courses that is designed to support learners to achieve mastery over their learning. Fusing together the principles of Universal Design for Learning, alongside core pedagogic principles such as  constructive alignment, active collaborative learning, and mastery-oriented feedback, CUTLAS is a systems approach to supporting learners to become Purposeful and Motivated, Resourceful and Knowledgeable, and Strategic and Goal Oriented - true expert learners.

With its emphasis on team, CUTLAS brings together those individuals that have a key stake in course design, including students, employers, learning technologists and disability specialists to name a few. Using a brains trust of key stakeholders to design courses, means we can create better more intuitive courses that reflect the genuine needs, preferences and interests of learners, as opposed to using the traditional approach in which courses are designed by a small and select group of individuals, reflecting all of their inherent preferences and biases.
