UDL and Flexible Strategies

During this portion of the morning, you will learn about universal design for learning and the three hallmark principles of UDL:

In a universally designed curriculum, teachers provide:
  1. Flexible ways of presenting lesson content which means that students have options for how they learn
  2. Flexible options for student engagement which means that students have choices which will engage their interest
  3. Flexible methods of expression, and assessment which means that students have choices for how they demonstrate their learning
The CAST website is a great resource to learn more about UDL.

How does your district address UDL and flexible strategies?
