Reviews

It is wonderful to find an educational book that offers both pedagogy and practical classroom applications. A Practical Reader in Universal Design for Learning was written for classroom teachers and school administrators, and it provides a wealth of implementation strategies, model lessons, and teacher reflections. This easy-to-read book will be an immediate and useful resource for all educators. Quentina Timoll, Educational Technology Consultant, Louisiana Department of Education"

This is a must-read for all educators who are genuinely interested in promoting practices that remove artificial barriers to learning. It is presented in user-friendly language that can be easily applied in the classroom. The promise of universally designed instruction through flexible means can become a reality. This book shows us the way in real-life examples. Markay L. Winston, Director of Student Services, Cincinnati Public Schools"

This is the definitive primer on Universal Design for Learning. It will be immensely helpful for teacher education candidates, graduate students, and in-service teachers in both classes for new teachers and professional development classes for experienced ones. Bob Hughes, Dean of General Studies, South Seattle Community College"
