It is relatively simple to articulate the three core principles of UDL to PK-12 educators. Preparing them to apply these principles in meaningful and effective ways, however, can be difficult. This is especially the case the more one attends to the detailed guidelines they encompass or focuses on the teaching of a particular content area. In this pre-conference workshop, attendees will participate in several interactive, hands-on learning activities and be introduced to a wealth of evidence-based and research-based practical strategies for teaching mathematics, aligned to the UDL guidelines. The main objective is that attendees emerge from the workshop immediately capable of applying a variety of UDL-aligned strategies to their teaching of mathematics. The emphasis will be on how the flexible differentiation that UDL motivates can help all learners, especially those struggling or receiving services for disabilities, gain the access to quality mathematics learning at high levels they are often denied.
