Then . . . you might want to be a part of an informal UDL learning community / study group.

This Learning Community, facilitated by Melissa Thomeczek, will research UDL - a ". . . flexible curriculum and learning environment that allows students with widely varying abilities and backgrounds the opportunity to access the general curriculum and achieve the academic content standards that have been established for all students" (Bremer, Clapper, Hitchcock, Hall & Kachgal, 2002) -- as a new approach to teaching, learning and the development of curriculum and assessment that draws on current brain research.
