Wondering how we can transform our professional learning communities and collaborative inquiry to incorporate Universal Design for Learning? Here are ways to rethink DuFour's 4 PLC questions with a UDL lens. Thanks @Tammy_Manor for the inspiration! @KatieNovakUDL

To deny expert assistance to a student in need because there is no IEP in place is to deny that student an equitable education. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #UDLchat #Inclusion #EdLeadership

The learning process isn't finished when you acquire knowledge. It's complete when you consistently apply that knowledge.

Many people accumulate information. Far fewer use it to evolve and improve.

The ultimate test of growth is closing the gap between awareness and action.
