* The act of designing a
learning experience to
fit the full spectrum of
students
* The purpose of UDL is
to make sure that
everyone is a
successful learner and
reaches their full
potential of being an
expert learner
* It is also about
designing learning
experiences which
allows the teachers to
be flexible and have
choices
3. *
* Right now, the way classrooms are being taught is focused
on the average student
* Cognitive neurosciences have shown that there really is no
“average student” anywhere
* Students who do not fit in the “average student” criteria
are being labeled as disabled, so, UDL is trying to get rid
of that label
* Teachers have students whose
first language is not English and
students with disabilities that
fall behind, but teachers also
have gifted/talented students
who are not being challenged
enough by the curriculum
4. *
*1. Provide Multiple Means of Representation
* This means that teachers should use different ways to
present information to their students
* For example, when teaching basic math, the teacher can
give their students a worksheet with addition and/or
subtraction problems and then use objects (i.e. blocks)
for the students to physically take away and add to give
them a different perspective
5. *
*2. Provide Multiple Means of Action and Expression
* Students can express what they know if different ways, for
example, in writings/language and drawings
6. *
*3. Provide Multiple Means of Engagement
* This is the most important of the three because without
engagement, the other two principles are not important
because involvement is criteria
* Engagement is key because if teachers do not involve or
engage students in activities, they will not be able to
measure their success and keep them motivated
7. *
* 1. Find out the goals
* 2. Find what materials will be
most useful in the classroom
* 3. Figure out which methods are
most useful for the teacher to use
(i.e. lectures, collaborative
groups, experiments, etc.)
* 4. Make sure the students are
learning by using different ways of
assessment
