About this title

Synopsis

Transform student assessment into a lever for success with a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) approach!

Traditional testing often measures a student's ability to navigate a specific format rather than their actual knowledge. The Assessment Playbook: A UDL Approach offers a transformative solution by applying the inclusive learning framework of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to classroom evaluation.

What is UDL?

UDL is a research-based framework designed to remove barriers to learning by offering flexible options for how students engage with material, perceive information, and express their knowledge. By applying UDL to assessment, educators can move beyond "one-size-fits-all" tests to ensure every student has an equitable opportunity to demonstrate their true understanding.

What's Inside the Playbook?

Developed by the professional learning and research experts at CAST, this playbook serves as an essential companion to the popular free UDL Assessment video series on CAST's YouTube channel. It tackles the fundamental questions every educator faces:

• What are the critical differences between formative and summative assessments and how to design them with intention.
• How to determine if your assessments are truly working and how to refine them for better results.
• Where to find more resources: Access over 100 curated tools and strategies to help you better understand what K-12 learners know and can do.

Whether you are a teacher, coach, or administrator, this book provides the expert tips and strategies needed to improve assessment and help every learner thrive. Discover how to bridge the gap between what students know and how they show it with this practical guide from CAST.
