Universal Design For Learning

What is Universal Design for Learning?
 
The National Center for Universal Design for Learning defines Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a set of principles for curriculum development that give all individuals equal opportunities to learn.  UDL provides a blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods, materials, and assessments that work for everyone rather than a one size fits all approach. Universal Design for Learning guides educators to use a flexible approach that can be customized and adjusted for individual needs. ​

Universal Design for Learning provides a framework to guide teachers in planning lessons that provide multiple means of representation, means of engagement, and multiple means of action and expression.

How is addressed at the Kilmer?

UDL strategies are implemented throughout the school day in a variety of ways, specifically within the four following areas
  • Physical Environment
  • Classroom Routines 
  • Classroom Management
  • Lesson Development 
Where do I find additional resources?
