As teachers, we understand that our students have diverse needs and each has their own unique mix of strengths and areas for growth. In this session, we will examine the UDL guidelines in more depth and experiment with what they look like in practice. We will explore and discuss how to identify and predict barriers to engagement, representation, and action & expression and learn how to proactively incorporate voice, choice, and scaffolds into goals, methods, materials and assessments to help learners overcome barriers.
