Principles of UDL
3 Principles of UDL
Multiple Means of Representation
Multiple Means of Action and Expression
Multiple Means of Engagement
The "what" of learning The "how" of learning The "why" of learning
Present information and content in different ways
Differentiate the ways that students can express what they know
Stimulate interest and motivation for learning
