UDL is a curriculum and instruction that includes alternatives for those of different backgrounds, learning preference and abilities. Initially designed by architects, UDL is a flexible curriculum of materials and activities, where students can receive an equal access of information.

UDL helps to build student independence. ]]> 2017-09-14 11:20:56 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500523 The What, Why and How of Learning gensenm https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500564 2017-09-14 11:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500564 Academic Challenges gensenm https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500579 UDL does not remove academic challenges away from students it is designed to remove small barriers in a flexible way to teach. ]]> 2017-09-14 11:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500579 gensenm https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500597 2017-09-14 11:21:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500597 Equal Access gensenm https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500623 UDL provides not just equal access to learning and access to information. Allowing teachers to monitor learning process, there is no one method of presentation or expression for learners.

 The design is useful and marketable to people with diverse abilities.
Principle 2: Flexibility in Use
The design accommodates a wide range of individual preferences and abilities. 
Principle 3: Simple and Intuitive Use
 Use of the design is easy to understand, regardless of the user's experience, knowledge, language skills, or current concentration level. 
Principle 4: Perceptible Information
 The design communicates necessary information effectively to the user, regardless of ambient conditions or the user's sensory abilities. 
Principle 5: Tolerance for Error
 The design minimizes hazards and the adverse consequences of accidental or unintended actions. 
Guidelines:
Principle 6: Low Physical Effort
The design can be used efficiently and comfortably and with a minimum of fatigue. 
Principle 7: Size and Space for Approach and Use
Appropriate size and space is provided for approach, reach, manipulation, and use regardless of user's body size, posture, or mobility

The components are products, content and process created off of teacher plans, instructions and individual skills of each student.

Differentiated Instruction's core goal is to make learning accessible for all students by recognizing learners differences in terms of interests and readiness. But in order to address these differences, teachers need to make instructional decisions based on formal and informal data related to the specific students in a classroom.]]> 2017-09-14 11:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500735 UDL vs. ID gensenm https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500753 2017-09-14 11:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/gensenm/ei90fip7g1qd/wish/187500753
