Bill McGrath from Montgomery County Public Schools, MD, shares why UDL is important for all learners.
Kathleen McClaskey's insight:

The UDL framework gives us guidelines and a vision to build expert learners:

The key to Universal Design for Learning is that we are designing learning experiences which, from the beginning, are designed to be universal and to make sure everybody learns. And that design is primarily based on the power to be very flexible in allowing choices, in allowing different paths, in allowing for things to be presented in different ways.
