The UDL Framework is a powerful set of guidelines to help teachers leverage research-based instructional practices with the ultimate goal of honoring learner agency- meaningful student choice. However, the guidelines can simultaneously feel vague and overwhelming. Teachers crave examples and templates to support their understanding of the Universal Design for Learning. Not ironically, providing examples and templates are both quality UDL practices for teachers to employ with students! As teachers examine models of UDL practice, they tend to see a lot of connections to their own practices, if only needing some small tweaks. This process is validating to see, and is more impactful when teachers get to see examples from their peers. To serve that purpose, the Padlet board embedded below is a collection of examples of UDL in practice from Churchville teachers. As you explore this curated list of ideas and examples, please consider contributing your own examples and replying to others to help build up ideas.Â
