Maryland Learning Links - Interactive Activity on Learning About UDL

Maryland Learning Links - Interactive Activity on Learning About UDL | UDL - Universal Design for Learning | Scoop.it

Maryland has created a site to help educators understand how to teach to all learners. An interactive activity is included with students with different learning challenges and the UDL solutions that could be employed in a lesson.  In this interactive activity, you can select either an elementary, middle school or high school scenario. Learn and enjoy!  

 

"The single most essential element of the UDL approach is that you have to know your students. You can only build UDL solutions when you understand your students' learning styles, levels of readiness (background knowledge), interests, strengths, and any special needs. Learn a little about each of these fourth graders so you can provide them with high-quality UDL solutions."

UDL - Equal Access in General Curriculum

Once we understand that our students with learning difficulties incite better instructional design for all students, we begin to see that the curriculum itself also needs to be re-evaluated - It cannot continue to be a "one size fits most" approach (Rose, Meyer, Hitchcock, 2005).

A concise, accessible, and current main text for the Introduction to Inclusive Teaching course. It is the only inclusion textbook available with a consistent, integrated emphasis on Universal Design for Learning (UDL)--an important, contemporary educational philosophy focused on using strategies and tools to help ALL students by accommodating their differences. This text also provides foundational information about children with disabilities who are included in today's classrooms, and the most effective strategies for teaching them alongside their typically developing peers. Featuring new case studies and sound research-based teaching and learning strategies, this hands-on text offers pre-service and in-service teachers a practical, flexible framework for effective instruction, classroom management, assessment, and collaboration in today's diverse classrooms.
