EDLD 5364 What I learned Week 2

This week I had the chance to learn about UDL. UDL stands for Universal Design for Learning.
UDL uses a variety of methods to address the different portions of a learner's brain. There are Recognition Network Tasks which deal with gathering facts and categorizing information, the "what" of learning, Strategic Network Tasks which deal with planning, performing tasks and expressing ideas, the "how" of learning, and Affective Network Tasks which control learner engagement, motivation and interest, the "why" of learning. The lesson model also incorporates both summative and formative assessments to demonstrate the efficacy of the lesson. To learn more, refer to What is Universal Design for Learning?
