  1. Welcome Back!Webinar 1 UDL Guidelines January 8, 2014

  2. UDL Connect:http://community.udlcenter.orgFor Online Resources & Discussionshttp://community.udlcenter.org/group/udl-amherst-public-schools (C) CAST 2013

  3. Goal for today • To build background about UDL Principle 1: Multiple Means of Representation • Explain how Principle 1 helps educators address variability in learners’ recognition networks • Understand how Principle 1 can be used as a lens for evaluating curricula for barriers and elements of UDL (C) CAST 2013

  4. Review: What is UDL? UDL is a framework for designing learning experiences from the beginning to reach all learners: • Variability is the rule • Context matters (C) CAST 2013

  5. Review: UDL Supports the development of Expert learners • Resourceful, knowledgeable • Strategic, goal directed • Purposeful, motivated (C) CAST 2013

  6. Review: Learning Brain & UDL Guidelines • Recognition: the “what” of learning • Multiple means of representation • Strategic Network: the “how” • Multiple means of action and expression • Affective Network: the “why” • Multiple means of engagement

  7. 3 Principles, 9 Guidelines with checkpoints http://www.udlcenter.org/sites/udlcenter.org/files/updateguidelines2_0.pdf (C) CAST 2013

  8. 3 Principles, 9 Guidelines with checkpoints Emphasizes the importance of removing unnecessary barriers http://www.udlcenter.org/sites/udlcenter.org/files/updateguidelines2_0.pdf (C) CAST 2013

  9. 3 Principles, 9 Guidelines with checkpoints Emphasizes the importance of removing unnecessary barriers Highlights strategies for building expertise http://www.udlcenter.org/sites/udlcenter.org/files/updateguidelines2_0.pdf (C) CAST 2013

  10. 3 Principles, 9 Guidelines with checkpoints Emphasizes the importance of removing unnecessary barriers Highlights strategies for building expertise Emphasizes the learning expertise towards achieving the goal http://www.udlcenter.org/sites/udlcenter.org/files/updateguidelines2_0.pdf (C) CAST 2013

  11. 3 Principles, 9 Guidelines with checkpoints Emphasizes the importance of removing unnecessary barriers Highlights strategies for building expertise Emphasizes the learning expertise towards achieving the goal http://www.udlcenter.org/sites/udlcenter.org/files/updateguidelines2_0.pdf (C) CAST 2013

  12. As we discuss the UDL Guidelines, you may want to identify one lesson/learning experience from your practice that you will analyze. (C) CAST 2013

  13. Flexibility using UDL Guidelines • Do not have to use them all • Often using one guideline supports another • Designing learning experiences using the Guidelines may take longer at first, but they work well to support learner variability (C) CAST 2013

  14. Multiple Means of Representation CAST 2013

  15. Recognition Network: “what of learning” • Identify & interpret patterns of sound, light, taste, smell, and touch (C) CAST 2013

  16. Considerations for Design Variability in perception Variability in language, mathematical expressions, and symbols Variability in comprehension (C) CAST 2013

  17. Activate your recognition network: perceptual illusions: http://michaelbach.de/ot/ Take 5 minutes and find one optical illusion to explore (C) CAST 2013

  18. Activate your recognition network: perceptual illusions: http://michaelbach.de/ot/ When you were doing the illusion activity(s), think about how your recognition networks were processing the information. How do you think it might have differed from the other participants in this session? (C) CAST 2013

  19. Guideline 1: Options for presenting information • Summary: • Customize display • Alternatives for auditory & visual information To learn more, explore 1 or 2 http://www.udlcenter.org/aboutudl/udlguidelines/principle1 https://sites.google.com/site/udlguidelinesexamples/home/provide-multiple-means-of-representation/provide-options-for-perception CAST 2012

  20. Guideline 1: Options for presenting information To learn more, explore 1 or 2 http://www.udlcenter.org/aboutudl/udlguidelines/principle1 https://sites.google.com/site/udlguidelinesexamples/home/provide-multiple-means-of-representation/provide-options-for-perception • Reflect: • How you already do this in your practice? • What impact could representing information in multiple ways have on students’ understanding? On their engagement with the subject? CAST 2012

  21. Guideline 2: Options for language & symbols • Summary: • Vocabulary, symbols • Cross-language supports • Multi-media To learn more, explore 1 or 2 http://www.udlcenter.org/aboutudl/udlguidelines/principle1 https://sites.google.com/site/udlguidelinesexamples/home/provide-multiple-means-of-representation/provide-options-for-language-mathematical-expressions-and-symbols CAST 2012

  22. Guideline 2: Options for language & symbols To learn more, explore 1 or 2 http://www.udlcenter.org/aboutudl/udlguidelines/principle1 https://sites.google.com/site/udlguidelinesexamples/home/provide-multiple-means-of-representation/provide-options-for-language-mathematical-expressions-and-symbols • Reflect: • How does understanding the variability in recognition networks help educators in designing curriculum to meet the needs of all learners? CAST 2012

  23. Support vocabulary • Plasticity • To change from experience • Like plastic, flexible and can bend • The brain shows plasticitywhen you use it: it actually gets bigger! • Latin: Moveable, changeable CAST 2012

  24. Options for comprehension • Summary: • Background knowledge • Highlight patterns • Maximize transfer To learn more, explore 1 or 2 http://www.udlcenter.org/aboutudl/udlguidelines/principle1 https://sites.google.com/site/udlguidelinesexamples/home/provide-multiple-means-of-representation/provide-options-for-comprehension CAST 2012

  25. Importance of background information • Antiques Roadshow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P90KcJDuhSQ

  26. Educator Worksheet: use to reflect about a lesson: http://www.edutopia.org/stw-assessment-authentic-student-engagement-video CAST 2012

  27. Reflect: Building Learning Experiences with a focus on Principle 1 • What Options for Perception do you already incorporate in your lesson design? • What new ideas do you have based on what you learned today? CAST 2012

  28. Learning more about Principle 1 • Learn more • Read Chapter 4 in the online book: • UDL – theory and practice, Multiple Means of Representation • http://udltheorypractice.cast.org/reading?26&loc=chapter3.xml_l16 • Session Activity • Choose a learning experience (such as, a lesson or a meeting), define goals, identify barriers, and design/re-design the experience that increases opportunities for all learners with a focus on Principle 1. CAST 2012

  29. Coming next week: Multiple Means of Action & Expression
