Within the UDL Principle of Engagement, educators should provide options for Self-regulation to motivate learners. One option to do this is to develop self-assessment and reflection activities. In order to develop better capacity for self-regulation, learners should learn to monitor their emotions and reactivity carefully and accurately. This tool identifies different self-assessment techniques and scaffold for educators to present to learners.

The self-assessment is designed to help school teams map their school’s current UDL practices to determine where they are and what next steps they can take on their UDL journey. Leadership teams use school data to identify areas of strength and growth related to schoolwide UDL practices and to identify potential entry points for improving UDL implementation. School teams can use the outcomes of this self-assessment to:  

• determine an area of focus;
• set an improvement goal;
• identify ongoing data that can be used to substantiate progress toward the goal;
• develop an action plan; 
• determine a timeline for revisiting and revising the plan and goal; and
• determine readiness for UDL School Certification
