iPads and UDL

UDL: Universal Design for Learning

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) means designing curriculum in a way that reduces barriers and supports all learners. This kind of design is vitally important for learners that struggle with disabilities. UDL assumes that the curriculum is the "thing" to be fixed - not the students. If we design flexible materials and use flexible methods, we can support all students in their ability to recognize patterns and understand information, use strategies necessary in their learning processes, and understand the greater significance of what they learn in a real-world context.

7 ways to teach digital literacy skills Fostering digital literacy skills is one of the most difficult tasks for educators.
