What is UDL? UDL was first developed in the 1990s by researchers at the Center for Applied Special Technology (CAST). They define UDL as: “…a research-based framework for designing curricula – that is educational goals, methods, materials and assessments – that enable all individuals to gain knowledge, skills and enthusiasm for learning. This is accomplished by simultaneously providing rich supports for learning and reducing barriers to the curriculum, while maintaining high achievement standards for all students.” -retrieved October 9, 2013 from Maryland Learning Links - http://marylandlearninglinks.org/950 Three Main Principles: Representation Action and Expression Engagement
