Can someone tell me briefly what UDL is? I am a technology teacher in Maryland.

Hi Matthew,
Universal Design is the framework for providing flexible goals, methods, materials, and assessments that accommodate learner differences. It is also the idea that teachers really need to customize their teaching to accommodate all learners and not just those students labeled as “special”.
I hope that helps. Please take a look a the links in the Blogroll and the green tabs up at the top.
