Abstract	Principals and teachers need a framework that will allow school personnel to reach and teach all students within the general education setting. One such framework is universal design for learning (UDL). UDL is achieved by means of flexible curricular materials and activities that provide alternatives for students with disparities in abilities and backgrounds. UDL allows for differentiating and individualizing learning in a standards-based learning environment by selective use of flexible pedagogy (Rose & Meyer, 2002). UDL challenges teachers to incorporate flexibility into instructional planning as a way to accommodate the learning needs of all students in the classroom. Although initially students with disabilities may be helped the most through UDL (Bowe, 2000), eventually all students will benefit. UDL provides the means for educators to develop methods and materials that enhance student opportunities to learn. All educators must understand how students learn and use the technology available to provide support and accommodations as needed to increase student participation and achievement in the general education curriculum.
