UDL begins at the planning process and requires knowing students and their needs and how to design learning/lessons to meet those needs for learner goals. Struggles include lack of knowledge of UDL; a mindset of equality not equity; and not having some of the resources needed for small group instruction to MEET needs of students.]]> 2018-04-26 13:29:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lbbgill/y01g7dvnpniy/wish/255632278 RtI Challenges https://padlet.com/lbbgill/y01g7dvnpniy/wish/255632436 - The time it takes to progress monitor each student.
