We were presented with multiple means of researching this topic and it was extremely interesting to hear from my fellow MDTA learners as to how they approached the learning - we all went about it differently, despite beginning presented with a scaffolded framework of information. I've always thought I was a kinesthetic learner, in that I feel I learn best with a hands on 'doing' approach. Today however, I opted for a more lecture style presentation, which was a combination of auditory and visual, rather than the more kinesthetic approach, which supports many learning theories that we learn through a combination of all three approaches.
During my research I found a number of visual representations which I found particularly connected to my developing understanding of UDL.
As part of our session we shared examples of UDL that we have incorporated into our teaching practice this year. I found it extremely valuable to do this as a means of reflecting on my practice, and relating the opportunities I've given my learners to this framework, as well as hearing examples from other MDTAs.
