Textbook Publishers have recognized the need for differentiated resources to address the variety of student learning styles, backgrounds and skills found in every classroom.  Students take in and process information in different ways. Options for understanding information are provided by publishers. The webpages withing this site contain links to the UDL resources provided by publishers for our SPPS Adopted Textbooks for required classes.  Within each subject area, there are links to course syllabi, and a detailed downloadable grid of differentiated resources for SPPS adopted textbooks.  UDL resources are catagorized by multiple means of presentation, multiple means of expression and mulitiple means of engagement.

Publishers Offer UDL Resources

Multiple means of representation provided by publishers include presentation CDs that include animated art and video segments, animated weblinks, graphic organizers and student textbooks

Multiple means of expression provided by some publishers include interactive student textbooks, instant-feedback assessments on-line, and netsimulation activities.

Multiple means of engagement provided by some publishers include warm activities with connections to life, simulated lab environments, and electronic activities.

A downloadable grid is available for each textbook in the sections of this website by subject area. A“UDL star” designates resources which (1) present content in multiple ways, (2) provide multiple ways for student expression or (3) provide multiple ways to engage students to in learning.   Resources designed to differentiate content and assessment for students with varying abilities and English language skills also have a UDL star.  Most all these resources were purchased by SPPS at the time of the adoption and were distributed to the schools or available online.
