My Project

UDL-aligned learning goals are focused on the skills and understandings that students should achieve rather than on the specific activities, methods, or tools that they should use. Its learning goals are expressed in language that is accessible and relevant to the students, and that allows for multiple ways of showing progress and mastery. All in for all students! The UDL design helps all students. But here are some of the ways it may be especially helpful to kids with learning and attention issues:

•makes learning more accessible in general education classrooms, which is where most kids with learning and attention issues spend most or all the school day

•presents information in ways that adapt to the learner, instead of asking the learner to adapt to the information

•gives kids more than one way to interact with material and builds in flexibility that can make it easier for kids to use their strengths to work on their weaknesses

•reduces stigma because by giving a variety of options to all students, UDL doesn’t single out the few who receive formal accommodations as part of IEPs or 504 plans
