Universal Design for Learning (UDL) provides educators with a structure to develop their instruction to meet the wide range of diversity among all learners. UDL is a research-based framework that suggests that a one-size-fits all approach to curricula is not effective. Participants will learn about many aspects of UDL, including the opportunity to integrate UDL and Assistive Technology to attain universal access for your students. This same technology can be utilized to offer different means of representation as your students share their learning. We will explore current technology that you may have available to you in your districts as well as other products that can help students access both curriculum and materials. UDL and AT are different from, yet complement each other to maximize learning opportunities for students.
