Universal Design for Learning (UDL) & Your Students … Do your students struggle with:  Reading?  Writing?  Achievement?  Appropriate behavior? UDL provides proven strategies to addresses student learning needs! Please see the Speaker’s Notes for more information & directions!

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) – How to Get Started What is UDL?What is UDL Goal: Take advantage of digital materialsGoal Rationale for UDL See the Speaker’s Notes for each of these slides for additional content. Go to Main Table of ContentsTable of Contents

What is UDL? A national movement grounded in belief that technology provides a medium for more flexible, differentiated instruction Built on the premise that there is no such thing as a “typical kid” and that differentiating instruction supports students who struggle with reading, writing, and math due to disabilities, English language learning, and/or other reasons. Describes the use of flexible methods and materials for instructing diverse learners. Addresses national and state agendas for instructional and assistive technology. From CAST at Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents

Goal of UDL Take Advantage of Digital Materials Technology Supports Flexible Teaching  Books and oral lectures are not flexible because one size does NOT fit all.  Digital text/media offer the use of sound and images which are better suited to meet the needs of diverse learners.  Internet resources offer more flexibility for diverse learners. Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents

Rationale for UDL “It is more efficient and cost effective to consider and address the diverse range of user needs during the design process, rather than as an adaptation after the fact” L. Schleff, Western Washington University Statute § 7-910: All teacher created technology-infused instructional materials must be accessible by FY2005.

Traditional Instruction – Why “One Size Does Not Fit All”  Limitations of SpeechSpeech  Limitations of TextText  Limitations of ImagesImages See the Speaker’s Notes for each of these slides for additional content. Go to Main Table of ContentsTable of Contents

What are the limitations with traditional instruction? Speech Limitations  Sounds spoken in rapid sequence & are transient > some students cannot process speech quickly enough  Requires ability to stay focused continuously & act strategically (active listening)  R equires verbal working memory  Requires ability to process intonation & gesture facial expression Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents Think about the question => click to see the answer.

What are the limitations with traditional instruction? Text Limitations  Representational and must be taught  More permanent than speech, but it lacks the inherent expressiveness of speech  Bound by conventions  Requires many automatic recognition of words, often difficult for dyslexics  Students may excel at recognizing text but don’t get the meaning easily Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents Think about the question => click to see the answer.

What are the limitations with traditional instruction? Image Limitations  Images are also bound by conventions that can be complex; they require training and practice to interpret  Images are usually not the best way to convey conceptual, philosophical, or abstract information  Images require the analysis of the parts in relation to the whole  Images present all information at once instead of sequentially Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents Think about the question => click to see the answer.

Recent Brain Research: Three Systems for Learning Recognition networks - identify & interpret patterns of sound, light, taste, smell, and touch Strategic networks – plan, execute, & monitor internally generated mental & motor actions & skills Affective networks – interact with the world influenced by state of emotions, mood, interest, personality, motivations, memory, & biological state For more information see: Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents

UDL Principle 1: Multiple representations of content What options do teachers have for presenting content?  Video  Audio  Text Only  Graphical  Combinations Go to Section Index or Main Table of ContentsSection IndexTable of Contents Think about the question => click to see the answer.
