Active learning environments evidently enhance student learning; however, some student groups (such as neurodivergent students) may experience these benefits differently. This workshop explores hidden barriers that neurodivergent students may face in active learning classrooms (e.g., challenges with staying focused, information overload, or anxiety stemming from ambiguity and social interaction) and provides participants with practical strategies for designing a neuroflexible learning space that supports neurodivergent students and benefits all students. Neuroflexible classrooms allow instructors to acknowledge and embrace neurological variation as a valuable dimension of human difference, not a deficit to overcome.
