Universal Design for Learning: Inclusive Education

Learning spaces are often designed as if all of us were alike, but our communities are rich in diversity, including a range of abilities and needs. By focusing on making spaces, content and learning activities accessible to those with disabilities, Universal Design for Learning (UDL) can benefit all learners while creating more equitable and inclusive educational experiences.

How much better could our communities and schools be if we viewed diversity as a strength rather than a deficit and we designed our spaces and our curriculum with that diversity in mind? Our newest article offers an introduction to UDL along with a toolkit of practical strategies and resources for how to incorporate these principles into planning learning experiences and physical spaces.
