   More and more teachers are interested in making their lessons and classes more inclusive for a wide range of learners. Students with disabilities and other learning differences benefit from having materials, evaluations, and learning environments that are supportive of their learning needs. In this month’s Teacher’s Corner, we look at Universal Design for Learning (UDL), a framework that helps teachers plan for different learners in their classes. We explore some guidelines for UDL and ways to implement UDL in the classroom.
