Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT)and Universal Design for Learning (UDL)

Effective multicultural education must consider not just schooling, but also the larger social, economic, and political factors that affect students’ success or failure in the classroom.Sonia Nieto, University of Massachusetts Amherst (Emerita) and Patty Bode, Tufts University.

UDL optimizes teaching and learning through providing students with equal learning opportunities by presenting learning content in a variety of ways and allowing multiple options to demonstrate understanding. UDL practitioners try to anticipate barriers in the learning environment and design flexible solutions to remove them.Joni Degner
