UDL at a Glance
Access for All

• Embedding flexible strategies into the curriculum during the planning process
• Reduces the need for retrofitting accommodations
for individual students • Flexible teaching and carefully planned choices for
all students to demonstrate their knowledge
Universal Design For Learning (UDL)
children with disabilities do not constitute a separate category, but fall along a continuum of learning differences
leads us to make adjustments for learner
differences for all students, not just those with disabilities
curriculum materials are varied, diverse,
multiple, digital and online
Multiple Means of Representation
