This document discusses Universal Design for Learning (UDL), which is a framework that provides multiple means of representation, expression, and engagement to meet the diverse needs of learners. UDL can help meet RtI mandates, differentiate instruction, and improve performance for students with disabilities or diverse backgrounds. The document provides examples of what UDL may look like in a school and free and low-cost assistive technology tools that can support UDL, such as screen readers, word prediction software, and visual supports. It emphasizes that UDL is a way of thinking and designing instruction to be accessible to all learners from the start.
