International Journal of Whole Schooling, v9 n1 p43-59 2013
Universal Design for Learning is a framework for developing inclusive instructional lesson plans. The effects of introducing Universal Design for Learning Principles and Guidelines in a university teacher education program with pre-service and practicing teachers were explored in a mixed methods approach. The results indicate that the study participants made significant changes to their lesson plans to optimally include all students. The participants expressed profound changes in understanding inclusion and instructional roles and responsibilities.
