About
Unlock hidden writing skills in all learners through UDL!
The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for writing are promising but are challenging to implement, especially for struggling students. Sally A. Spencer demonstrates the promise of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a framework for making the CCSS writing and language standards accessible to all kids. Educators who utilize these strategies will know:
• How to leverage the strengths of students to optimize writing instruction and overcome their weaknesses
• The ways UDL can minimize the roadblocks in CCSS implementation
• How to - and how not to - use technology to teach writing and language conventions
