Write, share, tweet:‘What is UDL?’ #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Goal To build a deeper understanding of how to design lessons that use the UDL framework and address learner variability #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Awareness #UDL (c) CAST 2014
What are your goals for today? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Core UDL concept #1: Variability is the rule #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Old view of learning: learning ‘styles’ #UDL (c) CAST 2014
New imaging: variability #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Core UDL Concept #2: the goal matters #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Core UDL Concept #3:Context matters #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Learning= dynamic interaction between learner (variability), environment (context), towards the goal #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Design from beginning for variability:reduce barriers so all can reach the goal #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDLCurriculum: ‘cognitive’ accessibilityGoal. Design (context, curriculum). Variability.Make available for all #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Questions, Reflections? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
The Marshmallow Challenge Goal: to build collaboration around design #UDL (c) CAST 2014
RULES: • 18 minutes, team of 4 • Tallest freestanding structure • Cannot be suspended • Entire marshmallow on top • Use as much/little of the contents in bag (not the bag); can break, cut… Have fun, collaborate & be creative #UDL (c) CAST 2014
What worked- what did not work?Variability! • Strategy • Representation • Engagement #UDL (c) CAST 2014
TED talk: collaboration, prototyping #UDL (c) CAST 2014
GoalConstruct relevant –v- construct irrelevant #UDL (c) CAST 2014
How do I ‘do’ UDL? • Goal • Variability • Assessment #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Goals are difficult Many goals: CCSS, district, lesson, department • Clarify goalsso all understand • Consider whether means are embedded #UDL (c) CAST 2014
1. Clarify Goal • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.WHST.6-8.1b Support claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or text, using credible sources. #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Clarify goal: simplify language, define terms • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.WHST.6-8.1bSupport claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or text, using credible sources. • New goal: Support claim with accurate data (credible sources). #UDL (c) CAST 2014
2. Is the means embedded in the goal? • New goal: Support claim with accurate data (credible sources). • New goal: Support claim with accurate data by writing an essay. #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Beware of secondary goals! #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Watch this example of a teacher in practice:1. Identify the GOAL. #UDL (c) CAST 2014
How do I ‘do’ UDL? • Goal • Variability • Assessment #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDL Guidelines #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDL Guidelines: design curriculum to address learner variability #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Variability in perception • Color blindness • Sensory overload • Vision • Audio skills, etc… #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Design curriculum with optionsfrom the beginning, for all • What supports recognition: • options for perception? • options to support vocabulary, symbols? • options to build background? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDL Guidelines #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Variability in Action & Expression • Fine motor • Set goals • Progress monitor • Working memory • Skills… #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Design curriculum with options from the beginning for all • What supports action: • Are there options for physical action? • Are there options for models, sentence starters? • Are there options for executive function (progress monitor, set goals)? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDL Guidelines #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Variability in engagement • Interests • Distractions • Collaboration • Coping skills… #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Emotions: ‘shelves that hold up the cognitive glassware’ EMOTIONS= shelves #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Perception:Resources vs. Demands Resources: Perceivedskills & resources Demands Perceived level of challenge #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Design curriculum with options from the beginning, for all • What supports engagement: • options for choice, authenticity? • options for collaboration, formative assessment? • options for self reflection? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Watch and discuss using UDL Guidelines: The cell lesson:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IDPGUSQNes • What strategies are already being used? • What barriers are still in the lesson? • What UDL options could be designed to remove these barriers? #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Goal of learning:Expert learners • Resourceful, knowledgeable • Strategic, goal directed • Purposeful, motivated #UDL (c) CAST 2014
Flexible use of UDL Guidelines, based on goal #UDL (c) CAST 2014
How do I ‘do’ UDL? • Goal • Variability: • Recognition, Action, Engagement • Assessment #UDL (c) CAST 2014
UDL… • A mindset for designing learning experiences • all individuals can gain knowledge, skills, and enthusiasm for learning • reduces barriers to the curriculum while maintaining high goals for all #UDL (c) CAST 2014
