Universal Design Learning is a set of principles for curriculum development that provides all students equal opportunities to learn by offering flexible materials, goals, assessments, and methods to accommodate the wide variety of interests, skills, needs, and learning differences students bring to the classroom, such as differences in ethnicity, eyesight, and other factors. Since there is no average learner, Universal Design Learning aims to nourish a wider range of students through a more inclusive learning environment.

interests, skills, and needs. Neuroscience
has shown that these differences can be as
varied as our fingerprints.

5. By offering a learning environment with flexible
materials, goals, assessments, and methods, we
can nourish a wider range and variety of
students!
As teachers, it is our job to reach our students in
the way that’s best for them. Students learning is
unique based on a multiple of factors such as
ethnicity, eyesight, etc.
Think of how many different types of students your
classroom holds? Each one is different in their own
unique way (:
