Technology to Motivate and Differentiate

     Another webcast from Scholastic will be presented in  computer lab B this Thursday at 3:00pm.  David Rose, Ed.D., who is the founder of CAST (Center for Applied Special Technology) is the speaker. He is a proponent of UDL (Universal Design for Learning). 
Taken from the CAST website:
"Universal Design for Learning (UDL) recognizes that every learner is unique and processes information differently. UDL provides a framework to create and implement lessons with flexible goals, methods, materials, and assessments that support learning for all students."  This link will take you to a short video explaining briefly what UDL is
      Dr. Rose is new to me, so I don't have a lot of info on him, but you can check out the CAST website at http://cast.org/
