This section brings together Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and concrete inclusive educational strategies. It first presents UDL as a framework for proactively designing learning in response to learner variability and then introduces specific strategies that teachers can select and adapt in particular educational situations.

\n

Universal Design for Learning and inclusive educational strategies are complementary. UDL provides a proactive framework for designing learning goals, materials, activities, participation and assessment in ways that anticipate learner variability from the outset. Inclusive educational strategies translate this orientation into concrete teaching decisions and responses.

\n

Some strategies may be incorporated into the design of learning and made available to all students. Others may be selected or individualised in response to a particular student, barrier, strength or learning situation. UDL can reduce many barriers before they arise, but it does not remove the need for targeted adjustments, support or individual planning.

\n

The relationship is also reciprocal. What teachers learn from responding to individual needs, strengths and experiences can inform the future design of learning for the whole group.

UDL anticipates learner variability through proactive design, while inclusive educational strategies provide concrete ways to support participation, respond to barriers and create opportunities to use and develop students’ strengths.
