This study investigated online faculty familiarity, course design use, and professional development interest regarding universal design for learning (UDL) guidelines. The researchers surveyed all 2017 to 2018 online faculty at a large university in the southeastern United States. Findings included 71.6% of faculty reporting familiarity with at least one UDL guideline, with most respondents indicating familiarity with guidelines relating to perception, expression, and communication. Faculty reported the highest implementation of UDL guidelines was for those suggesting options for comprehension as well as expression and communication; the lowest implementation was for those suggesting options for physical action as well as language and support. Survey results also indicated high to moderate interest in learning more about all UDL guidelines, with emphasis on comprehension, persistence, and expression. This study suggests that faculty members desire UDL training and offers possibilities for planning and implementing such professional development in areas targeted to best meet the needs of online faculty.

网上大学教师对通用设计学习的熟悉程度，当前使用和兴趣

这项研究调查了在线教师对通用设计学习（UDL）指南的熟悉程度，课程设计的使用以及专业发展的兴趣。研究人员调查了美国东南部一所大型大学的所有2017年至2018年在线教师。调查结果包括71.6％的教师报告熟悉至少一项UDL指南，大多数受访者表示对与感知，表达和沟通有关的指南熟悉。学院报告说，对于那些建议理解，表达和交流的人来说，实施UDL指南的程度最高。最低的实施是针对那些建议采取物理行动以及语言和支持选项的人。调查结果还表明，人们对学习所有UDL指南的知识有较高的兴趣，强调理解，坚持和表达。这项研究表明，教职员工希望进行UDL培训，并为在最能满足在线教职人员需求的领域规划和实施此类专业发展提供了可能性。
