Overview

• Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an educational framework aimed at making learning accessible and effective for all students, regardless of their individual differences

General concepts

Universal Design

Multiple Means of Action and Expression

Multiple Means of Representation

This principle focuses on motivating students and keeping them engaged. It recognizes that students have different interests and preferences, so it encourages the use of various methods to capture their attention and sustain their motivation

Multiple Means of Engagement

Universal Design

This principle highlights the importance of offering students multiple ways to showcase their learning. It recognizes that students have diverse abilities and preferences in how they express their knowledge, encouraging the use of various methods such as writing, speaking, drawing, or utilizing technology

This principle addresses the ways information is presented to students. Since students perceive and comprehend information differently, UDL promotes offering content in multiple formats, such as text, audio, video, and interactive media

Speech

Vision

Create a custom voice that sounds like you, or choose one of dozens of system voices, then use it to have what you type spoken out loud.

Hearing

Get real-time captioning of spoken audio from an app or live conversation, turn on flash notifications, have iPad recognize sounds, and more.

Mobility

Navigate and perform actions on iPad using just your eyes or spoken commands. Or connect an assistive device or an external keyboard and use it to control iPad.

Use the built-in screen reader to hear what’s on the screen and navigate iPad with gestures. Or make text bigger, zoom in on the screen, adjust display colors, and more.
