A Universal Design for Learning Including those with Complex Communication Needs
Universal Design for Learning is a framework for approaching instruction for all students and learners. Professionals working under this framework presume competence for all students by identifying and removing all barriers to representation, engagement and expression. The ACCESS Project at the University of Delaware has done work to implement UDL as a framework in classrooms throughout the state. The success that they have seen is an overall shift in attitudes of educators and professionals as well as improvements in success for a wide variety of students.
