Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a research-based framework that will help you identify and address barriers to learning based on the content and context of the learning. Through UDL, you can set clear, challenging, standards-based goals for students while allowing them flexible paths to achieving those goals so that every student can thrive. This course combines engaging, interactive content with authentic application to practice, so that you can quickly begin universally designing your lessons.
