UDL Principle 1 and Web 2.0 - Wikis, Podcasts and Blogs | UDL - Universal Design for Learning | Scoop.it

How can Web 2.0 tools help support UDL Principle 1: the "what" of learning?  Here are just a few example on how wikis, podcasts and blogs can provide "muliple means of representation".

 

How can wikis help?

> Educators can post text, graphics, video, voice/sound files, and interactive applications to show concepts, skills, and facts in different ways

> Students can use posted and in-class examples as a springboard to creating and posting their own examples to clarify information for themselves and their peers

 

 How can podcasts help?

> Video (vodcast) and voice (podcast) recordings can provide anecdotes and stories related to essential skills and knowledge that would be unwieldy to type

 

How can blogs help?

> Educators can offer information in most of the same diverse ways as indicated above in the section on wikis (text, graphics, video, voice/sound files, and links to interactive applications)

> Easy, responsive method of addressing prior knowledge issues that arise during each day and might be addressed online at night
