UD/Universal Design for Learning, they are usually used interchangeable, will benefit many students with or without disabilities. (Posted by Dr. Christopher Lee) -----Original Message----- From: nifl-ld@nifl.gov [mailto:nifl-ld@nifl.gov] On Behalf Of Fletcher, Jackie L Sent: Monday, September 19, 2005 5:33 PM To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: [NIFL-LD:4851] RE: Dr. Christopher Lee - Day 1, Sept. 19, 2005 Dr. Lee, I am very interested in universal design (UD). UD will change how teachers teach, will benefit many students with and without disabilities, and I believe will "de-stigmatized" persons with physical and hidden disabilities. My question: Are the general principles of UD different from the Universal Design for Learning principles? It is my understanding that UD is a design for all people no matter the ability, because UD is a user-friendly design (tolerance for error) and flexibility. Thanks, and I am looking forward to your continued discussion on the listserv.
