Review of a Helpful UDL Website

Review of a Helpful UDL Website

Today I reviewed a new site that impressed me. As discussed in the previous post, I will be expanding on the UDL module. This website first goes into the three multiple means of UDL; representation, expression and engagement which we talked about earlier. Under the E-Book (http://udl.wiki.ciu20.org/E-books) link on the right, there is a slide show that explains in detail how to create an E-Book using PowerPoint and Voice Threads. They include tutorials and finished examples. There are some sample UDL lessons under another link ( http://udl.wiki.ciu20.org/Sample+UDL+lessons ). I really liked that they had a UDL lesson builder ( http://lessonbuilder.cast.org/ ). It is free to use but you do need to create an account. I looked over the “Explore Model UDL Lesson Plans” ( http://lessonbuilder.cast.org/explore.php ) and it taught me, through examples, different ways to incorporate UDL in the real classroom. It shows you how each part is a UDL connection. This provided me with a helpful tool that I will use in my teaching future.

Talk to you soon,

Bridgette
