Students should be provided the tools to succeed, however, they should also be provided the skills necessary to succeed with those tools. You can't give them a device and expect them to know how to use it effectively. You must guide them to a level of successful independence in achieving the expected positive outcome.

Fairness is tailored to each student depending on their needs. Helping students discover different avenues to completing tasks or getting work done will encourage students to embrace learning with confidence. The consquence is that students create their own statement of " I was not very good at this in school"

All students are unique and it is important we connect with their individual needs to assist with learning!

Teachers need to have conversations with their students about fairness and what it looks like for everyone. Just because you are working one on one or in a small group with a set of students does not mean they are getting something that you are not. You are giving them what they need, just as you give them when they need something.

It is very important that every child gets the tools they need to be successful.  If we don't provide these tools, our students will struggle.  Fairness will help to build confidence in our students, and the willingness to learn.  If it's not fair, students may shut down.

Providing the proper learning tools allows for more "Ah ha!" moments in the student's learning!

The idea of naked independence would be the same as thinking someone in a wheel chair is "cheating" because they use wheels and not their feet to complete a lap around the gym

Fair doesn't mean equal. UDL is needed to see the scope of your students learning. Failure to do so leads to frustration and outbursts from students.

Every child is unique and learns in different ways. We need to provide students with the tools they need so they can learn best- some may need extra time, or visuals or chromebooks- it does not mean they are getting something "special" they are getting what they need to help them succeed and that needs to be an option for every single student.

Every student should have access to supports

How are supports to help achievement in academics any different than supports that help people with medical conditions live a life more like those around them?

so important, by not doing this we make the learning gap even bigger and harder to close.

Dave Edyburn describes the biased view that students who rely on external devices or tools to achieve what others are able to do without assistance as “naked independence”. Is it a fair expectation that all students should be able to complete a learning task in the same way? Are students who use supports 'cheating'? Who should have access to supports?

Fairness means everyone gets the same thing. However, the functional definition of fairness is that every-one gets what they need. How important is it to provide students with the tools they need to be successful learners? What is the consequence of not doing this?
