Abstract:
Universal Design for Learning（以下UDL）は、米国CAST（Center for Applied Special Technology）が提案した、多様性に対応する授業デザインのフレームワークである。すべての学習者が学びをかじ取りできるように、カリキュラムに内在するバリアを見つけ、オプションを提供し選択を促し、足場架けをしながら指導を行う。UDLはなぜ注目されるのか、その概略を解説し、実際の活用例を紹介する。

​

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a framework for lesson design that accommodates learner diversity, proposed by the Center for Applied Special Technology (CAST) in the United States. UDL aims to help all learners take the helm of their own learning by identifying barriers inherent in the curriculum, providing options and opportunities for choice, and offering scaffolding during instruction. In the keynote address, the presentation will explain the reasons why Universal Design for Learning (UDL) has gained attention, provide an overview of its framework, and present examples of its implementation in practice.
