21. UDL at a Glance

23. Major Influence - Universal Design: applying architectural, accessible, and safe ideas to classrooms

25. Higher Education Opportunity Act (2008)
UDL is a scientifically valid framework for
guiding educational practice that
provides flexibility in the ways information is presented, in the ways students respond or demonstrate knowledge and skills, and in the ways students are engaged; and
reduces barriers in instruction, provides appropriate accommodations, supports, and challenges, and maintains high achievement expectations for all students, including students with disabilities and students who are limited English proficient.
Higher Education Opportunity Act (2008)

33. How have you seen technology being integrated into classrooms?

34. Technology Integration
Technology integration is the use of technology resources -- computers, mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, digital cameras, social media platforms and networks, software applications, the Internet, etc. -- in daily classroom practices, and in the management of a school. Successful technology integration is achieved when the use of technology is:
Routine and transparent
Accessible and readily available for the task at hand
Supporting the curricular goals, and helping the students to effectively reach their goals

38. Levels of Technology Integration
Technology is rarely used or available. Students rarely use technology to complete assignments or projects.
Sparse:
Technology is used or available occasionally/often in a lab rather than the classroom. Students are comfortable with one or two tools and sometimes use these tools to create projects that show understanding of content.
Basic:
Technology is used in the classroom on a fairly regular basis. Students are comfortable with a variety of tools and often use these tools to create projects that show understanding of content.
Comfortable: 
Students employ technology daily in the classroom using a variety of tools to complete assignments and create projects that show a deep understanding of content.
Seamless:
