What is Universal Design and why is it important to all teachers and learners! UDL is multiple means of representation to give learners various ways of acquiring information and knowledge.Multiple means of action and expression to provide learners alternatives for demonstrating what they know.Multiple means of engagement to tap into learners’ interests, challenge them appropriately, and motivate them to learn. Flexible digital media makes it easier than ever to provide these multiple alternatives and therefore customize teaching and learning. Participants in this workshop will leave with an understanding of UDL and how it relates to their classroom. Sample digital toolkits will be presented to the participants which they will be able to use in class the next day with their students!
