UEN Teacher Tips is a weekly series from the UEN Professional Development team. Every Tuesday, we'll share a new tip, how-to video and classroom resource. When life is busy and time is short, we hope these tips lead to bright ideas, just in time! This week's tip is "UDL: Flexible Expression of Learning (and Instruction!)" by Val O'Bryan.

This microcredential focuses on an instructional coach's application of effective instructional design and assessment strategies through the use of Universal Design for Learning Theory. Having a foundational understanding of effective instructional practices is paramount to providing students with a quality education.

This graphic describes each of the 3 principles of Universal Design for Learning as well as a description for how to access, build, and internalize each principle when designing instruction.

This video describes what Universal Design for Learning is and how to think about designing instruction to meet the needs of all students.
