Welcome! : Let's Explore Universal Design for Learning (U.D.L) !

Let's learn how to even the playing field together! Please join me as I build my knowledge on the educational concept called Universal Design for Learning, also referred to as "UDL." UDL is a, "set of principles for curriculum development that give all individuals equal opportunities to learn."(http://www.cast.org/udl/index.html)
UDL provides a consistent framework for understanding from the beginning of instruction and thus allows teachers to shape their students into strategic and expert learners. When UDL is implemented, content is accessible to diverse learners both in the inclusive classroom, and the special education classroom. Technology is a key component to make the content accessible to all types of learners.
