Multiple Means of Representation
Key information should be equally perceptible to all learners. No one medium for representing information is equally accessible for all students (e.g. information conveyed solely through sound is not accessible to learners with hearing disabilities, those who are learning in their second language, or those who need more time to process information.
Tip: Provide options and include graphics to represent complex concepts.
Tool: Visual mapping software, described in the video below.

Multiple Means of Action & Expression
Offer different ways for students to demonstrate what they know. Assessments are designed to measure knowledge, skills, and abilities. Providing students with a single method of evaluation (such as multiple choice exams) can create barriers for students with learning disabilities, students who are learning in their second language, or students from different cultural backgrounds. Applying universal design to assessment allows us to address variability among leaners.
Tools: Ungraded or Optional Assignments. Flexibility and variety in instruction and assessment. Described in the videos below.

Multiple Means of Engagement
Foster active participation in class. This strengthens learning and the effectiveness of your instruction. Start by identifying potential barriers to engagement in your class. For example, presentations and activity in front of the class can create barriers for students with anxiety or depression, or who come from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Individual learner variability is the norm, not the exception. Provide options such as small group discussions, online discussions, or group presentations.

Tool 2: Different means of Participation
