Met with partner in advance and got to tweak to meet our needs.  I appreciate that since we needed to own the content to be able to present it effectively.

Many teachers said "we already do UDL" and found the information unhelpful. We know that our district does not do UDL uniformly. This suggests that presenters and the material was not able to challenge teacher mindset. The avoidance of using UDL, and instead focusing on "tier 1", which is not the same as the framework, allowed people to stay within their fixed paradigms.

Engagement is key.  Some felt starting with the keynote would have been more beneficial

I would have appreciated more time to meet with my partner and also to absorb the slide deck. The delivery of the slide deck over the course of two and a half hours, slide by slide was really difficult for me. I would have loved to use that time with my partner and getting to know the material I would be presenting.

If we are pushing learning through the district PD model, then a walkthrough tool must be created for accountability and monitoring of the learning. If teachers believe stubbornly that they do UDL and did not need the training, then the data should support it. If the data does not support it, then reteaching (tier 2) is essential.

The Zoom IC grades training was not well-received by teachers at the end of the day. It just didn't quite work.

Teachers think they know what UDL is, but it is not always implemented or correctly defined.

I think the planning time for the teachers was very helpful.   I saw comments about more concrete strategies.  Perhaps we can engage them in the use of strategies more.  Pick 1 or 2 to utilize.

Administrator programs focus namely on budgets and compliance. Administrators need more training to become instructional leaders, before they are asked to lead entire PDs.

I appreciate C&I and how thorough the slides were as well as the run through the week before, but it was a really difficult day. With registration and our own PD, I felt very stretched. We also had spent a lot of time before the run through trying to make sense of it. I wish I knew you were going to provide that support.

I would have liked to be trained on UDL at our district retreat and have time to digest.

That said, I enjoyed working with the VAPA group!

I'm not sure if this hit the mark for UDL training. It seemed very introductory, and teachers left with the impression, "We already do UDL." Something with more meat would have been beneficial, along with some concrete steps for integrating it into their classrooms would have helped.

I appreciated having a partner when presenting to provide a different point of view and clarity when something was a little fuzzy to me. I feel that instruction is my strength but it brings it to life when I can provide real life experience stories of having used it in the classroom, which is becoming harder to do the longer I'm out of the classroom. It would help to have mini video clips of UDL in action rather than the student preferences (although it was helpful for teachers to connect emotionally with the content). It's always a little harder to present something that I have not been a part of creating...but it is more efficient. Thank you for the obvious hard work and thought put into the presentation.

I think PD that is more tailored for those who are not classroom teachers will be welcome by specialists. The overall concept of UDL was clear, not sure that teachers were able to tailor it to their grade levels or classrooms with specific tools.
