The 21st Century Teacher

In this episode we are excited to have Katie Novak join the show. Katie Novak, EdD, is an internationally renowned education consultant, author, graduate instructor at the University of Pennsylvania, and a former assistant superintendent of schools in Massachusetts.

In this episode we talk about UDL - that is Universal Design for Learning. How can we address the needs of everyone in the class? How can we empower students by teaching them in a way that optimizes the learning. We discuss how to engage everyone in a classroom and some strategies that work? How can we allow freedom and movement in a classroom to support how all the students learn? There are some great problem solving strategies offered and we also touch on addressing text base questions with UDL. Lots of good stuff here if you are interested in finding out more about UDL - and need that extra nudge to jump in an explore some new techniques in your classroom.
