Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood
As an academic and a teacher, managing students with a lot of learning styles and abilities/intelligences, and new tools for learning, we are increasingly facing choices about how we manage the learning environment

And sorry I could not travel both
Tools we traditionally associate with learning - notes, books, images, blackboards and chalk have history, they fit comfortably with our teaching. New tools – technological gadgets can be difficult to keep apace with?

And be one traveller
As learning becomes more accessible, the student profile is changing. 4.6% in Ireland,
In nursing, teacher training, medicine, engineering courses

long I stoodAnd Looked Down oneAs far I could Students with disabilities are taking
courses we would never have thought possible.A Nurse with one hand, A Teacher who is deaf, Engineer with visual impairment

TO WHERE IT BENT IN THE UNDER GROWTH
There is a quiet revolution we need to embrace!We must stop and think about teaching, learning and technology, How, Why, What for? Universal Design, what is it….And most importantly, How much do I need to know????
![Page 6: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Then took the other as just as fair
When considering students with disabilities and the choices they are making,it may (will) challenge our biases and presumptions.

And having perhaps the better claim
I have a new
amplified stethoscope
!
We need to recognise students arechoosing courses that they believe they have the ability to study and want a career in….just as their peers do.Students - today - can engage in learning in a different way and claim it in a way that suits them
![Page 8: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same
But is not student success and high quality of education still what it is all about?
![Page 9: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
And both that morning equally lay
Yet things cannot remain the same for any student…Control – quality of education, appropriate usage of technologies,…Standards –what’s fair to all students?…Equality – what will this look like??

In leaves no step had trodden black.
This is all new ground

Oh, I kept the first for another day!
So with all the changes – the primary objective is that all students with a diverse need can be the best that they can be – and that best will get better….
![Page 12: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
And now more than ever we need to share our learning, our concerns, our experiences, our questions….
![Page 13: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
I doubted if I should ever come back
Through this sharing and evolution we will all realize change…
![Page 14: Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56814bd0550346895db8a838/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
I shall be telling this with a sigh
And sometime in the future…we will all be able to say we were part of this great change
