2. UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR LEARNING
• There is not an average
student, so designing
for one is impractical
• Both ends of the
spectrum are being
marginalized
• Heart of design is to be
flexible and allow
various ways to achieve
universal design and so
everyone learns

3. MAIN PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING
• 3 principles
• How does learner pick
up information?
• How does learner react
to information?
• How is the learner
engaged?

4. UNIVERSAL DESIGNS OF LEARNING
PRINCIPLES
• Multiple means of
representations
• Learning styles are important
• Multiple means of action and
expression
• Students differ in the way they
communicate
• Multiple means of engagement
• If not met, all other principles are
lost

5. 4 COMPONENTS
• What are the goals?
• Materials used
• Methods
• Means of Assessment
• All of these components are
necessary for universal design
because they ensure that at any
time in the learning process, there
are many designs to suit every
students.
