Sharing Experiences This page are excerpts from a diary of experiences over the past two years. Exploring and developing UDL practices in the classroom is more than worthwhile endeavour! But those working in this area of education recognize the need to share their experiences and learn from one another!

CAST: __Centre for Applied Special Technology__ This is a rather large site with a great deal to offer. The site is a must for those starting to look at UDL and those that continue to develop their understanding of UDL!

UDL in Practice in Schools in BC, Canada Mallory Burton has been heading up a pilot project on UDL in BC. She presented at the Bridges conference in Toronto 2009. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience to share through her Wiki. It is a great project, as she worked with Elementary schools to develop UDL lessons and resources. Mallory is eager to share her lessons learned, as well as resources developed. The 3 year project is coming to a close and Mallory is confident that UDL will continue to be a strong part of the school system in BC.

__[|Wikipedia]__ This is a great resource! By clicking on "Simple English" on the left of any article, the text is condensed to shorter and more concise language. This is a great feature for all learners.

UDL@UVM Blog This is a most magnificent site! It has videos, news, training information, teacher resources, and much more! This site may prove more useful to both understanding and implementing UDL than the CAST site - depending on your needs!

[|Webquest for Teachers: Constructivism and Technology] This WebQuest will help you go beyond the basics of integrating technology into the classroom and give you a further understanding of constructivism - individuals building their own understanding - to a more thorough explanation of the theory and its various aspects.

[| Constructivism and Technology] Create, read and share a new online media. [|Jog the Web] enables multiple websites to be presented as a package thus providing a semi-directed approach to research. Lets say we wanted to research news and how it is delivered. We could construct (or get students to construct) an appropriate jog to support this research.
