This assignment provides the opportunity for you to apply the principles of universal design for learning (UDL) in the design of instruction and assessment.
Recall that UDL provides access to the curriculum for students with a wide variety of abilities and background. Therefore, UDL aligns with inclusionary practices found in today's schools.
Furthermore, assistive technology supports the UDL framework to provide a means of learning for students with disabilities. To prepare for this assignment, review the CAST (2010) video, UDL at a Glance and review the Explore model UDL lesson plans (2011) web page, both of which are listed in the Week Three Required Resources.
Be sure to also review the Week Three Instructor Guidance page for additional intellectual elaboration on UDL and assistance with this assignment.
