Let's Delve a Little Further into UDL

Cast not only has the basic definition of UDL (Universal Design for Learning) like I explained in the last post, but also goes further with the explanation into what UDL is. 

Cast has a “Teaching Every Student” page that explains, again, the basics of UDL, activities for UDL, and some case studies using UDL.  Within the “Activities for UDL” is even an activity entitled “Getting to Know You the UDL Way” which allows every educator to go through a scenario listing your background knowledge and skills, your strength, and your challenges.  It’s actually a pretty cool activity to do because it helps you identify these different aspects which, in turn, help you understand better about UDL.  The case studies are also helpful because it helps allow each educator to apply what you have been learning in regard to UDL to specific scenarios within the classroom.  There are three different case studies that are available to look at.

I believe this is a site that once I have my own classroom if I need a refresher of what UDL is I will be looking back at it.  I believe the best resources on this page, for me, would be the “Getting to Know You the UDL Way” and possibly the case studies to apply the UDL principals to real situations.
