- 1. Universal Design How can we implement in education?
- 2. What is “universal design”? Universal design whether or not you know is used widely in a lot of education classrooms. More often than not it’s in our elementary and secondary classrooms. It’s not so that teachers can get across to ALL students in an effective way. Curriculum has always had it’s own disabilities but with universal design, it calls to fix those disabilities within our curriculum.
- 3. 3 Different Parts 1) Multiple Means of Representation What ways are you going to represent the material? Manipulatives? Writing? Experiements? This way each student is able to understand the material because it’s being represented in many different ways. This is so all types of learners are in fact learning. 2) Multiple Means of Action and Expression How are the students going to show YOU what they learned? Will you have them do a writing assignment? A powerpoint? A poster? An artifact? A group project using all of the above? 3) Multiple Means of Engagement How are you going to make the students WANT to learn and continue their efforts in education?
- 4. For each lesson using UD... When constructing a lesson plan for the classroom, there are 4 different parts in order to make it an effective universal design. First, you must have goals within your lesson. This is normally a translation of the standards. Secondly, the materials you are going to use (crayons, markers, textbook, notebook). Third, the methods. How are you going to go about teaching these goals? And lastly, the assessment. How are we sure as educators that learning is occurring?
- 5. Implementation in the Classroom How are we implementing universal design in the classroom? You may not know it, but your teachers were always implementing it. Sometimes, teachers do it without even noticing. For example, making a lesson where the goal is that you understand addition. The teacher will then figure out different materials that can help the goal be attained. Coloring the numbers out? Using manipulatives? Drawing circles then using M&M pieces to add or subrat? These are all ideas as to the different REPRESENTATIONS teachers can use. Then how do you want these to students to let you know they are learning? Do you give a test and evaluate who’s learning the material? Then lastly, you have to keep these students engaged. How are you going to target their interests with this activity?
- 6. Evaluate Now let’s think. Does Miami obtain to universal design? Since we are students, do you think that our professors design their lessons in order to reach all of their students? Or is it just implemented in the elementary and secondary classrooms?
