lab 5 universal design for learning meeting the needs of all students Flashcards
the real challenge for educators is tor provide learning opportunities in the general- education curriculum that are
inclusive and effective for all students.
universal design for learning
a scientifically valid framework for guiding educational practice
puts the burden of change where it belongs; on the curriculum
the UDL framework was conceived by researchers at the
center for applied special technology (CAST in the lane 1980s
the UDL framework was conceived as a result of the alignment of three conceptual shifts in
architectural design, developments in education technology, and discoveries from brain research
three networks at work in the brain during learning
recognition network (the what), strategic network (the how), and the affective network (the why)
UDL framework was initially proposed as
means for including students with disabilities in the general education classroom
UDL framework is now better understood as
a general-educaiton initiative that improves outcomes for all learners
principle one
provide multiple means or representation (recognition)
principle two
provide multiple means of action and expression (strategic)
principle three
provide multiple means of engagement (affective)
goals
typically described as learning expectations
goals represent
knowledge, concepts, and skills students need to waste are are usually aligned to state standards
methods
the instructional strategies used by educators to support student learning
flexible and adjustable through UDL
methods should be
evidence based and supported by an analysis of learner variability
materials
media used to present content and demonstrate learning
UDL offers multiple media options
