What is Universal Design for Learning?
UDL is a set of principles for curriculum
development that give all individuals equal
opportunities to learn.
UDL provides a blueprint for creating
instructional goals, methods, materials, and
assessments that work for everyone--not a
single, one-size-fits-all solution but rather
flexible approaches that can be customized
and adjusted for individual needs.
3 Major UDL principles…
Teachers provide:
Flexible ways of
presenting lesson
content
Flexible options for
student engagement
Flexible methods of
expression, and
assessment
Students have:
Options for how
they learn
Choices which
will engage
student interest
Choices for how
they
demonstrate
their learning
