Minimizing threats & distractions

Enhancing capacity for monitoring

progress

What is Universal Design for Learning?

A set of principles for curriculum development that give all

individuals equal opportunities to learn.

A blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods,

materials, and assessments.

A framework that works for everyone--not a single, one-

size-fits-all solution but rather flexible approaches that can

be customized and adjusted to scaffold and support

learning.

Summary

UDL is based on what we’ve learned in neuroscience and the

learning sciences about HOW we learn.

There are 3 brain networks associated with learning:

Affective, Recognition, Strategic and 3 UDL Principles

offering multiple means of: Engagement, Representation and

Action & Expression. There are 3 UDL Guidelines for

addressing each UDL Principle.

We can address the CCSS (the ‘what’ of learning) by

applying UDL (the ‘how’ of learning) to our planning and

instructional practice.
