UDL Principles
“UDL is a research-based set of principles for creating curriculum—including instructional goals, methods, materials, and assessments—that provide all individuals with greater opportunities to learn.”
- National Center on Universal Design for Learning
UDL Curriculum
In a curriculum rooted in 3 UDL principles…
Students have: • Options for how they learn• Choices which will engage their interest• Choices for how they demonstrate their
learning
Teachers provide:• Flexible ways of presenting lesson content• Flexible options for student engagement• Flexible methods of expression and assessment
UDL Curriculum
Universal Design for Learning Guidelines – Version 1.0
1. What are expert learners?2. What is meant by the term “curriculum”3. What does it mean to say curricula are
“disabled”? 4. How does UDL address and redress
curricular disabilities? 5. What evidence supports the practices
of Universal Design for Learning? 6. How are the Guidelines organized and
how should they be used?
What are expert learners? Strategic, goal directed learners.
• Formulate plans, devise strategies, organize resources, monitor progress, self-aware
Resourceful, knowledgeable learners.• Activate prior knowledge, recognize valuable
tools and resources, transform new information into useable knowledge
Purposeful, motivated learners. • Set challenging learning goals, sustain effort
and resilience, monitor and regulate emotional reactions
What is meant by the term “curriculum”?
Goals – Benchmarks or expectations for teaching and learning.
Methods – Specific instructional methods for the teacher.
Materials – Media and tools that are used for teaching and learning.
Assessment – Reasons for and methods of measuring student progress.
What does it mean to say curriculum is “disabled”?
They are disabled in WHO it can teach.
They are disabled in WHAT it can teach.
They are disabled in HOW it can teach.
How does UDL address curricular disabilities?
UDL refers to a process by which a curriculum is intentionally and systematically designed from the beginning to address individual differences.
UDL focuses on identifying practices that have proven effective for students “in the margins”.
UDL has benefited greatly from powerful digital technologies that make it possible to customize and personalize more easily and effectively.
What evidence supports the practices of UDL?
The three basic principles are derived from research in modern neuroscience and the cognitive science of learning – Vygotsky and Bloom.
Research identifying the specific practices that are critical to meeting the challenge of individual differences.
New research on the specific applications of UDL.
