7. UDL Framework Universal Design for Learning is a conceptual shift It is a framework to design curriculum and instructional style (Goals, Methods, Materials, and Assessments) that minimizes barriers and maximizes learning for all students Page 129

9. Principles of UDL 1. Multiple Means of Representation 1. Multiple Means of Representation Recognition: The “what” of learning Recognition: The “what” of learning 2. Multiple Means of Action and Expression 2. Multiple Means of Action and Expression Strategy: The “how” of learning Strategy: The “how” of learning 3. Multiple Means of Engagement 3. Multiple Means of Engagement Affect: The “why” of learning Affect: The “why” of learning Page 129

10. Principles of UDL Recognition Network The “what” of learning Strategic Network The “how” of learning Affective Network The “why” of learning Page 130

11. Principles and Guidelines

13. Determine a Standard’s True Purpose Recognition goals: focus on specific content Recognition goals: focus on specific content Strategic goals: focus on a specific process or medium Strategic goals: focus on a specific process or medium Affective goals: focus on a particular value or emotional outcome Affective goals: focus on a particular value or emotional outcome

14. For some students, it may initially be more important to build engagement than to attempt to develop knowledge or skill.

15. Putting Universal Design for Learning to practice!

16. 1. Identify the Needs Page 131

17. Needs determined Formal/Summative Standardized test Local Assessments NWEA State/National Examinations Informal/Formative Observation Checklist Daily work Unit completion Portfolio

18. The needs determined should lead the team to…

19. 2. Determine Goals What do you want the student to accomplish?

20. What do you want the students to learn? (Goal) Align Core Standards with Curriculum (Methods) Align Core Standards with Curriculum (Methods) Lesson Planning Template (Materials) Lesson Planning Template (Materials) Universal Design for Learning Checklist (Materials) Universal Design for Learning Checklist (Materials) Formative/Summative Assessment (Assessment) Formative/Summative Assessment (Assessment)

21. Three Components of a Goal: Three Components of a Goal: 1. Students know what they are suppose to do 1. Students know what they are suppose to do 2. How to do it 2. How to do it 3. Why it is important 3. Why it is important

22. When goals are too tightly tied to the methods, barriers may occur for some students.
