CAST's UDL and Research Based Technology Lessons

This week in review is a delve into the way the brain learns and how technology has repeatedly shown to increase the interest level and engagement of the students/learners and subsequently increased the performance level of the student on standardized assessments. This is my particular breadth of interest and was very excited to be introduced to the CAST site and read this specific research presented in out readings.

In the specific application to my practice I will use the UDL Lesson Planner to direct my planning but frame it within the concrete UDL learning aspects addressing the “what”, the “how”, and the “why” of knowledge acquisition.
