I had the pleasure of collaborating with Autism & Exceptional Learner Elements on this podcast to address the basics of what Universal Design for Learning is and why it’s so important. The framework can be an amazing tool to help meet the needs of diverse learners. The goal of UDL is to create expert learners who are purposeful & motivated, resourceful & knowledgeable, and strategic & goal-directed. You can check out the YouTube Video or the Podcast below. Let us know what you think!
