This assignment provides the opportunity for you to apply the pr.docxmichelle1011
This assignment provides the opportunity for you to apply the principles of universal design for learning (UDL) in the design of instruction and assessment. Recall that UDL provides access to the curriculum for students with a wide variety of abilities and background. Therefore, UDL aligns with inclusionary practices found in today’s schools. Furthermore, assistive technology supports the UDL framework to provide a means of learning for students with disabilities. To prepare for this assignment, review the CAST (2010) video,
UDL at a Glance (Links to an external site.)
and review the
Explore model UDL lesson plans (Links to an external site.)
(2011) web page, both of which are listed in the Week Three Required Resources. Be sure to also review the Week Three Instructor Guidance page for additional intellectual elaboration on UDL and assistance with this assignment.
Begin preparing for this assignment by selecting a specific model lesson from the Explore Model UDL Lesson Plans (2011) page of the CAST.org website. Analyze the lesson for the points described in the Content Instructions included with this assignment, below. Click on the “UDL Connections” buttons located at various points in the lesson to analyze how UDL principles have been integrated. Next, create your assignment to meet the content and written communication instructions below. Use the Grading Rubric to review your assignment before submission to ensure you have met the distinguished performance for each of the components described below. For additional assistance with this assignment, review the Week Three Instructor Guidance page and, if needed, contact the instructor for further clarifications.

The presenter will share experiences and best practices for using UDL and digital technologies to make content areas and a rigorous curriculum accessible for ELs.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. What is UDL?
O Universal Design for Learning, also known as
UDL, is an instructional method that provides
curriculum flexibility which makes the learning
goals achievable for all students with wide
differences in their learning abilities.
O All students have the ability to learn and UDL
is an approach teachers can use to ensure
material is challenging for each student.
O Teachers want to avoid a situation as
displayed in the following slide
3.
4. UDL Inspiration
O All students have the ability to learn
O UDL provides the blueprint for creating
O Instructional goals
O Instructional methods
O Instructional materials
O Instructional assessments
O UDL is not a single one-size fits all
solution
O UDL is flexible, customizable and
adjustable to the individual learner.
6. UDL Principles
O UDL is comprised of three principles that
support three primary brain networks:
7. Multiple Means of
Representation
Classroom Examples:
O Advance organizers used to cover expectations
O Use audio files to explain assignments
O Use a daily class agenda
O Use a clicker system to review lesson material
O Post all lesson documents online in multiple
formats so students are able to access the
needed information
8. Multiple Means
of Expression
Examples of classroom use:
O Use multiple assessment methods to
students can express knowledge in
multiple ways
O Give students the opportunity to choose
the type of assignment, which challenges
them and demonstrates the mastery of the
learning objectives
O Use discussion boards or blogs
9. Multiple Means of
Engagement
Classroom use:
O Create performance/problem based
assignments and assessments
O Allow students to set lesson goals
O Ensure grades are posted in a timely
manner
O Provide feedback to students and allow
students to provide feedback to the
teacher
O Develop group assignments requiring
collaboration
10. UDL and Technology
O Technology is not a must have
requirement of UDL, but it makes some
aspects of UDL easier
O Compact disc with textbook, allows for
enlarging font
O Clicker system
O Audio devices
O Optron machines
O Computers
O Software / Internet
11. Impact of UDL
O UDL can have the following impact on
student learning:
O Students become more engaged
O Students are challenged, but not overly
challenged allowing them to become
frustrated
O Students become motivated
O All students achieve the same learning
objectives
O Students become better learners
12. Brain Research
O The most important revelation is there are no
“regular” students
O Categorizing learners does not reflect reality
O The brain distributes processes to different
parts
O Each of the three networks of the brain has a
role in learning
O Patterns of strengths and weaknesses across
all three networks interact with the teaching
and learning environments
13. UDL Support
O UDL can support the learner in multiple
ways and by taking into account brain
research and the three networks of the
brain
O Provide options for:
O Perception
O Language and symbols
O Comprehension
O Physical action
14. UDL Support Con’t
O Provide options for:
O Expressive skills and fluency
O Executing functions
O Recruiting interest
O Sustaining effort and persistence
O Self-Regulation
15. CAST Tools / Resources
O Curriculum self-check: Explore resources
O This site can be used to help apply UDL
principles in your teaching to reach and engage
all of your students.
http://udlselfcheck.cast.org
O UDL lesson builder
O Provides educators with models and tools to
create and adapt lessons that increase access
and participation in the general education
curriculum for all students.
