How and why should I use UDL and OER in my classroom?

 Every learner is different, as is the way they learn best. Some people improve after viewing YouTube videos and working in groups, while others excel after reading and working solo. The idea is to figure out what their strengths and limitations are, and then utilize that information to create lessons. It's crucial to disseminate material in a number of methods, in addition to making it available in a digital version. This will guarantee that it corresponds to the pupils' strengths and shortcomings identified before. OER also enables teachers to create their own material. Students and educators may print, duplicate, and alter OER without worrying about copyright issues. Educators may also update OER to ensure that students receive the most up-to-date and accurate material possible.

 Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a method of teaching and learning that ensures that all students have an equal chance of succeeding. It's easier to grasp what UDL isn't than it is to explain what it is. You can be confused by the word universal. It may appear that Universal Design for Learning is about finding a single technique to teach all pupils. UDL, on the other hand, adopts the opposite strategy. The purpose of UDL is to remove any obstacles to learning using a range of instructional modalities. It's all about incorporating flexibility that may be tailored to each individual's skills and requirements. As a result, UDL is beneficial to all students.
