    A1. My understanding is UDL = strategies based on how the brain develops and how humans learn. #bcedchat
  • LemarrTreadwell Jan 15 @ 10:11 PM EST
    #BCedchat Got it. Instruction that gives all individuals equal opportunities to learn. That covers equality. UDL does not cover equity?

    In reply to @ardaughty
  • ChristineYH Jan 15 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A1. From what I understand of UDL, it's about looking at the end & designing learning experience from that end point. #notcertain #bcedchat
  • technolandy Jan 15 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A1 originally from school of architecture, Universal Design for Learning is about flexible learning environments that meet S needs #bcedchat
  • davemccr Jan 15 @ 10:12 PM EST
    A1 UDL is working towards a goal, that is understood before you begin working towards it. Ex. This is a pie. How can we make it. #bcedchat

    #bcedchat is now trending in Canada, ranking 33

    In reply to @CraigMah, @LemarrTreadwell
  • lizbellteacher Jan 15 @ 10:12 PM EST
    A1. With UDL, we have to clearly know what the big ideas and learning goals are before we start teaching #bcedchat
  • ChristineYH Jan 15 @ 10:12 PM EST
    Oh yay... I was not too far off from my description of UDL. That is reassuring. #bcedchat

    A1 how we approach making the pie depends on the learner. Premade crust vs making pastry from lard vs puffed pastry. #bcedchat

    In reply to @brynmw, @bcedchat
  • ChristineYH Jan 15 @ 10:14 PM EST
    This is good. UDL is learner centred. Not always the same path to the same endpoint w/ your group of learners. Subject to change. #bcedchat
    • davemccr Jan 15 @ 10:13 PM EST
      A1 how we approach making the pie depends on the learner. Premade crust vs making pastry from lard vs puffed pastry. #bcedchat
  • technolandy Jan 15 @ 10:15 PM EST
    @davemccr and the. UDL starts to factor if someone is allergic to a pie filling (or the crust ingredients) #bcedchat
    In reply to @ChristineYH, @davemccr
  • brynmw Jan 15 @ 10:15 PM EST
    Loving the conversation around #UDL It is giving me much to think about. #bcedchat

    UDL starts with end in mind, but also essentially considers Ss to whom learning is aimed. Can't plan w/out knowing who they are! #bcedchat

    Holly from sd43 (Coquitlam) here :) UDL sounds like 'differentiated learning' #bcedchat

    Very Similar. Check out ASCD for great resources. #bcedchat
    In reply to @ardaughty
  • LemarrTreadwell Jan 15 @ 10:18 PM EST
    #BCedchat Okay. So why can't we begin and end with relevancy?

    YES. just retweeted something like this. Please expand. #bcedchat
  • osier_ryan Jan 15 @ 10:18 PM EST
    A2: Not sure if the best... You could start with the assessment and backwards map providing multiple ave for Ss to be successful #bcedchat

    #BCedchat Since Ss today are born in another time, educators must develop relevancy. Call it UDL or whatever.
