What is Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and how can teachers use it?

[Deepak]

I came across UDL while looking into inclusive teaching strategies. Can someone share a basic explanation and how it can be applied in the classroom?

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a teaching framework that helps make learning accessible to all students, regardless of their abilities or learning styles. It encourages teachers to offer multiple ways for students to learn (such as visuals, audio, and hands-on activities), demonstrate what they know (through tests, projects, and discussions), and maintain engagement (by providing choice and relevance). By planning lessons that are flexible, inclusive, and supportive, teachers can use UDL to ensure every student has an equal chance to succeed.
