Welcome

UDL is a framework for designing instruction that meets the needs of all learners. We understand that as a teacher, you might have questions or concerns about applying UDL in your classroom. That’s why we want to address the elephants in the room and help you overcome any barriers that you may encounter.

We also provide a self-assessment tool that can help you gauge where you currently stand in applying UDL in the classroom. This tool can be a great starting point for identifying the areas that you need to focus on as you continue to learn and grow as a UDL practitioner.

Additionally, we offer a range of Open Educational Resources that you can use to apply UDL. These resources are designed to support you in implementing UDL principles in your classroom and help you create an environment that is inclusive and accessible for all learners.

Finally, we encourage you to share your main takeaways with colleagues and other educators. By sharing your learning and experience with others, you can help spread the word about UDL and inspire more teachers to create inclusive learning environments. Thank you for joining us on this UDL Learning Path!

Elephants in the room

I do not have time to apply UDL in my classroom

Can I accomodate all my students’ needs while using UDL?

You definitely can, so long as you identify their needs, the different learning types and their preferences. You’ll be spoilt for choice in UDL procedure and that will help you notice needs that might be clear before. Remember: you don’t have to do everything at once. Start from the barriers, because removing one barrier can impact a lot of students.

How can I assess my students’ progress using UDL?

Think about what you are assessing and the learning goals you set out and start from there.
