Universal Design Learning Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a scientific framework for delivering curriculum (Edyburn, 2010). Developed for disabled students/special education (Edyburn, 2010). Strategy for differentiated instruction Emphasizes using technology to differentiate instruction Goals Provides flexibility in instruction to reach the most students (Edyburn, 2010) Reduces barriers so students can learn (Edyburn, 2010)
UDL & DI Comparison Main differences between UDL and DI Similarities UDL stresses use of technology (Hall, Strangman & Meyer, 2011). UDL was design specifically for disabled or special education classroom (Hall, Strangman & Meyer, 2011). Similarities UDL is a strategy to implement DI Concepts based upon Flexibility (Puckett, 2013). Teachers differentiate so students do not have to (Hall, Strangman & Meyer, 2011). Proactive curriculum that prevent problems, not fixing them after the happen (Puckett, 2013).
UDL Principles DI Principles (Puckett, 2013) Provide Multiple Means of Representation Differentiate through Content Multiple ways to present information Provide Options for Perception Auditory, Visual, Display Provide Options for Language, math expressions & symbols Clarify Vocab, Syntax, Support Differentiate by Student - Readiness - Learning Profile Provide Options for Comprehension Background, highlight patterns, guide information process (Puckett, 2013)

How to Present New Information & Demonstrate Background Knowledge Using UDL and DI combined gives you multiple options to present new information. First do a pre-assessment: Determine knowledge and student Interests. Graphical Organizer = KWL (the knowledge, want to know, and what they learned) Chart (Puckett, 2013). Field Trip Example of a Student Response to the KWL Chart (Creately, 2011)
Engage & Motivate Get to know your students Relationships!
