Universal Design for Learning Methods that Work
What is it? • UDL is a new way to accommodate all learners by providing new teaching and assessment methods and helping students create clear goals. It is designed to help teachers accommodate the diverse student population found in our schools.
What’s wrong with the old way? • Traditional methods of lecturing and test-taking make it much more difficult for our diverse learners to succeed in our classrooms. We must employ more interesting and effective ways to present our information to our students and assess what they have learned.
