Where are you in your understanding about UDL? 1 = Just beginning, what does ‘UDL’ even stand for? 2 = I know a little about UDL 3 = Ask me anything about UDL: I could lead this session! We recognize there will be variability in the understanding and background of UDL. UDL supports to build background: The UDL Connect site has additional background videos and articles to read, re-read to build background or to dive deeper The notes section of the power points will provide ‘diving deeper’ options for those of you who already have a strong background. Feel free to read and explore the content. Foster collaboration: identify other participants who may be good supports for building understanding and for discussions. Add to the UDL Connect discussion posts or Tweets with comments and questions you have during the workshop During work time, ask for additional help from CAST staff CAST Wakefield 10/5-10/6/2013

Reflect What are you going to share with your colleagues? What are you going “Monday morning”? Where are you with respect to your personal goals? Write, record, draw, share, tweet…
