The document discusses the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), which aims to remove barriers from teaching methods and materials to help all students achieve success. It was developed based on research showing the brain has three neural networks for recognition, strategic, and affective learning. UDL provides multiple means of representation, expression, and engagement to accommodate diverse learners. Technologies like electronic textbooks and screen readers can make curriculums more accessible when incorporated using UDL guidelines.
This presentation, created by the National UDL Task Force, provides an introduction to universal design and universal design for learning. It then illustrates how UDL applies to the whole curriculum and how UDL is being supported at the local, state, and federal level.

Educating Students Who Need Intensive Supports in a UDL Environment
This slide presentation was developed by participants of the 2012 Ohio Center for Autism and Low Incidence (OCALI) Conference to provide an overview of how students with disabilities (who need intensive supports) can be served in an educational environment that has integrated the principles of Universal Design for Learning.
The information contained in these slides was shared during NAEYC's 2016 Annual Conference held in Los Angeles, CA November 2-5, 2016. These slides consolidate much of the differentiated instructional information shared by SFL's Director of Early Childhood Education Initiatives, Kamna Seth, and Senior Manager, Gauri Shirali-Deo. The topic presented, Differentiated Instructional Startegies: Meeting the needs of ALL children in early childhood programs, discussed strategies for how inclusive early childhood settings can effectively meet the needs of all students including English language learners, children with developmental delays, and children who need additional enrichment.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. UDL Inspiration
Ron Mace of North Carolina State University
formulated the idea of universal design in architecture.
Structures needed to be designed and constructed to
accommodate ALL users, including those with
disabilities, without the need for specialized designs.
4. Universal Design Applied to
Learning
Helps all students achieve success with the removal of
barriers from teaching methods and materials
A blueprint to accommodate learner differences
Provides:
Increased Achievement
Greater student Engagement
Content that matches student interests
Assignments varied based on student’s skills
Variable goals, methods, materials, and assessments
5. 3 Neural Networks of UDL
Recognition - “What”
Strategic - “How”
Brain Affective - “Why”
Research
Teaching must fit into
three learning networks.
“Provides a basis for
determining the kinds of
teaching and learning
alternatives most useful
for a particular student in
a given circumstance”
(Rose, Meyer, Strangman,
& Rappolt, 2002).
6. Implications of
Brain Research
Educators must design diverse curriculums that
activate all three neural networks because one size
does not fit all.
Learning, teaching methods, assessments, and
materials must be made to work for everyone.
7. Recognition Network
(The “What” of Learning)
Recognize and categorize what we see, hear, and read
Gathering of facts
Identifying patterns
Multiple means of representation: give
students a variety of ways to learn concepts
by presenting information in different ways.
8. Recognition Tasks
Identifying an author’s style of writing
Identifying letters
Identifying number patterns
Identifying words
9. Strategic Network
(The “How” of Learning)
Plan and execute tasks
Organize and communicate concepts
Show mastery of a concept
Multiple means of expression: give students
varied choices to show mastery of the concepts
taught.
11. Affective Network
(The “Why” of Learning)
Ability to attach emotional meaning to objects and actions.
Student engagement
Student motivation
Multiple means of engagement: teach to
student interests, provide appropriate
challenging tasks, and motivate students.
12. Implication of
Learning Differences
Support cultural, ethnical, linguistic, and academic diversity by
presenting ideas utilizing a variety of technology tools and
diverse teaching methods.
Students with disabilities can grow and succeed because
barriers to their learning are removed.
Create responsive learning environments.
Enhance learning opportunities for ALL students.
Assignments and teaching methods are based are student
interests and motivation.
Electronic Textbooks
Screen Reading Software
13. Technology in the UDL classroom
“One central idea of UDL is that as new curricular materials and
learning technologies are developed, they should be designed from
the beginning to be flexible enough to accommodate the unique
learning styles of a wide range of individuals, including children
with disabilities” (The Early Childhood Technical Assistance
Center, 2012)
14. Role of Technology
Remove Barriers
Electronic versions of textbooks
Accessible Web pages
Multiple options for presentation of
materials
PowerPoint presentations
Videos
Digital Text
Scaffolding
Provide students with appropriate
tools and resources
Provide varied choices for student
expression
