UDL+Principles

=__ Principles of UDL __=
 * The principles of universal design place responsibility for making curriculum, materials and environments accessible to all students. As educators, we need to consider ways to make education more time convenient for time-pressed students, more comfortable to accommodate the diversity of learners and more flexible for various learning styles. **

 * Individuals bring a huge variety of skills, needs, and interests to learning. Neuroscience reveals that these differences are as varied and unique as our DNA or fingerprints. Three primary brain networks come into play:**

= Recognition Networks =

The "what" of learning: How we gather facts and categorize what we see, hear, and read. Identifying letters, words, or an author's style are recognition tasks.

 * Principle I: Provide Multiple Means of Representation.**

= Strategic Networks =

The "how" of learning: Planning and performing tasks. How we organize and express our ideas. Writing an essay or solving a math problem are strategic tasks.

 * Principle II: Provide Multiple Means of Action and Expression.**

= Affective Networks =

The "why" of learning: How learners get engaged and stay motivated. How they are challenged, excited, or interested. These are affective dimensions.

 * Principle III: Provide Multiple Means of Engagement.**
