Universal Design for Learning, or UDL, is a set of learning design principles that increase access and reduce barriers for all types of learners. This video shows how UDL principles serve culturally diverse students, such as international students or English language learners.

As schools become increasingly culturally diverse, it is critical to design learning environments that not only honor learner variability but also cultural variability. All students must feel a deep and authentic connection to education and the learning environments in which they invest their time and efforts. As known, designing flexible and accessible learning environments through the UDL framework can take UDL implementation to the next level and create culturally accessible learning environments through the UDL framework.
