The article listed above really helps readers who do not know or have never heard of an IEP or a 504. I think that it gives good insight on how to distinguish on whether a student needs an IEP or if they need a 504 and how to differentiate the two. I like the grid they have showing each different element to 504 and IEP’s and that they also included a quick video that gives viewers an overview of the topic. This isimportant knowledge to have as a teacher because I need to know how to best help my students learn to the best of their ability.
The link above is about UDL guidelines. I did not know what UDL was before reading this article so I got a lot of great information. I like that they listed out the guidelines in a grid and color coded it for each guideline. I think this helps the viewer navigate the information well. These guidelines will be useful for my classroom because students will be represented through their work, be abode to express themselves through the action of art making and be engaged with their art.
Digital equity is important to have in your classroom and with it being the 21st century technology is everywhere, but not everyone has access to it. I like that they used an infographic to share more information in a quickly readable way and that they provided picture of students using technology in the classroom. I think the 4 techniques were logical and can be easily followed by any teacher! As an art teacher I don’t include a ton of new technology into m y lesson or homework but adjusting to fit every students need is something i plan on doing in all aspects of teaching but especially when it comes to teaching.
