Ali, 10/31/2022 en-us 2022-11-01 00:37:23 UTC 2022-11-01 03:44:44 UTC hello@padlet.com UDL (Universal Design of Learning) evelynavila3260 https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364107552 Aims to remove any possible barriers in learning to ensure that all students have an equal opportunity to succeed in life beyond education in the classroom as UDL acknowledges diversity as integral to success.

UDL provides equity for pupils pertaining to minority groups and the in the low income sector. ULD provides an abundance of methods to present lessons to students. As we know each and every student learns differently and there has been an increase of awareness of learning disorders/disabilities , and mental disorders that can disrupt a pupils learning progress academically. UDL aids teachers in creating co collaborative lessons that adapts to their students educational needs giving teachers and students an equal and common ground .

Representation: UDL recommends offering information in more than one general format.
Action and expression: UDL suggests allowing kids more than one way to interact with the presented material and to show them what they've learned.
Engagement: UDL encourages teachers to look for multiple ways to motivate students.

In a UDL classroom, there are flexible work spaces for students to complete their tasks such as quiet individual work, small and large group work, and group instruction. UDL provides students with multiple options to show their learning. Classroom application of UDL provides students with multiple options and I will provide multiple options and ways for students to submit assignments as long as the lesson goals are met :

I will allow students to be able to create a podcast or a video to show what they know and understood, and or even allowing them to draw a comic strips to details their understanding.

I will Provide students with regular and constant feedback that reflects how students are simply doing, allow them to reflect on choices they made, individually speak to students about their needs, and allowing them self reflection time, and then teacher/student collaboration to help them meet their educational needs and goals.]]> 2022-11-01 01:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364131774 OER ( Open Educational Resources) evelynavila3260 https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364158711 Open educational resources are materials for teaching or learning that are either in the public domain or have been released under a license that allows them to be freely used through no-cost access, re-use, re-purpose, adaptation and redistributed by others.

Open educational resources cover a wide range of online formats, including online textbooks, video recorded lectures, YouTube clips, web-based textual materials designed for independent study, animations and simulations, digital diagrams and graphics, some MOOCs, or even assessment materials such as tests with automated answers. OER can also include Powerpoint slides or pdf files of lecture notes. In order to be open educational resources, though, they must be freely available for at least educational use.

Apply consideration in identifying students and subject areas that have learning needs that your existing curriculum resources don't address.

Completed Course:
Bridge to Success
Materials, mostly study skills, to support students transitioning to college.
EdX
Library of college-level courses from a variety of high-profile universities. Some course materials are freely licensed for reuse.

Multimedia:

Re-use: The most basic level of openness. People are allowed to use all or part of the work for their own purposes (for example, download an educational video to watch at a later time);

Re-distribute: People can share the work with others (for example, send a digital article by-email to a colleague);

Revise: People can adapt, modify, translate, or change the work (for example, take a book written in English and turn it into a Spanish audio book);

Re-mix: People can take two or more existing resources and combine them to create a new resource (for example, take audio lectures from one course and combine them with slides from another course to create a new derivative work);

Retain: No digital rights management restrictions (DRM); the content is yours to keep, whether you’re the author, an instructor using the material, or a student.

UDL can be applied to my future career as an Educator by allowing me to promote flexibility in my students academic learning environment. OER can be applied to my future career as an Educator by allowing my students free and available public resources that further assist their needs that my existing curriculum resources didn’t/don’t address.]]> 2022-11-01 02:40:51 UTC https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364257969 UDL Information evelynavila3260 https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364305426 https://www.readingrockets.org/article/universal-design-learning-udl-what-you-need-know]]> 2022-11-01 03:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364305426 OER Information evelynavila3260 https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364309886 https://towson.libguides.com/oer/why-oer]]> 2022-11-01 03:26:42 UTC https://padlet.com/evelynavila3260/fyogaz5rko0rw054/wish/2364309886
