I think this is relevant because it gives specific examples of ways all teachers can attempt to meet the learning needs of all students in their classroom.]]> 2022-06-15 00:41:31 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221315984 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221335037 Implementing UDL in the classroom can seem overwhelming. This article breaks down UDL in the classroom into four beliefs teachers should start with to help UDL seem like less of a daunting task. The article emphasizes UDL as a mindset. I think if we as educators are more conscious about our thoughts and believing in our students, the result will be a classroom full of students who each accomplish their version of success. ]]> 2022-06-15 01:01:59 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221335037 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221348300 This video contains student and teacher testimonials on Read&Write and how it has helped each student reach their learning goals. This is an excellent tool and real life example of implementing a Universal Design for Learning in the classroom and how it makes students feel. ]]> 2022-06-15 01:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221348300 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221362151 This video gives the basics of what Universal Design for Learning is and examples of what it can look like in the classroom. It compares UDL to the implementation of the dropped curb---both movements that benefit everyone and promote inclusion. ]]> 2022-06-15 01:26:52 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221362151 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221375976 This website has a quick description of the three main principles of UDL as well as a detailed description further down on the page. We have to understand what makes up universal learning in order to implement it!]]> 2022-06-15 01:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221375976 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221388803 There are three major networks of the brain and everyone uses these in a unique way. One of the results of this is that everyone's best practices for learning varies. In the world of education, teaching to the average student was no longer feasible because the average student did not exit. As a result, UDL was born. This article scientifically supports UDL for student success as individual and unique learners. ]]> 2022-06-15 01:52:43 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221388803 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221404126 This website described the similarities and differences between Universal Design for Learning and Differentiated Instruction. These are often confused as the same concept. One of the main differences is that UDL is more proactive while DI is reactive with student learning.]]> 2022-06-15 02:07:48 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221404126 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221413909 This is a list of resources for the middle and high school math classroom that can help create a Universal Design for Learning with short descriptions of each. I teach high school math so this is a great place to start in implementing UDL in my classroom!]]> 2022-06-15 02:17:01 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221413909 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221439266 There are some common misconceptions about UDL such as technology is required or that UDL is only for those with learning disabilities. While technology is a valuable tool, UDL is all about flexible learning options which can be done without technology. UDL is also about benefiting all learners, not just those with learning disabilities. ]]> 2022-06-15 02:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221439266 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221446297 The idea of universal design started with Robert Mace in designing accessible buildings. This then transferred into the world of education in 1984 when David Rose and Ann Meyer created the Center for Applied Technology. ]]> 2022-06-15 02:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221446297 trottec https://padlet.com/trottec/UDL/wish/2221985164 There is a detailed chart breaking down the three major principles of UDL: Engagement, Representation, and Action & Expression.
