Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an educational approach to teaching, learning, and assessment, drawing on new brain research and new media technologies to respond to individual differences.

“Universal design is the design of products and environments to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design.” - Ron Mace, Founder of the Center for Universal Design
"UDL is really a merging of general education and special education, a sharing of responsibility, resources and ownership. It gets away from the "their kids/our kids" divide between general education and special education." - David Rose,A Practical Reader in Universal Design for Learning.
UDL is about the decisions we make in the design and development of learning systems, materials, and environments and whether those decisions unnecessarily constrain learners.
“Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an educational approach to curriculum and instruction using technology to enable students with diverse learning needs to be successful in the classroom .” UDL Provides a blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods, materials and assessments that work for everyone.
