Example (Possible Evidence)

Note: Links in this column are to pages in the TLC Professional Development Course or Canvas Guides

★ B.1 Content is "chunked" into manageable pieces by leveraging modules (e.g. organized by units, chapters, topic, or weeks) allowing the course to support outcomes, be appropriately paced, and evenly distributed.

---UDL 3.3 Guide information processing and visualization

Course content is structured into modules that include pages, assignments, discussions, and quizzes. This enhances the student experience and streamlines their navigating the course.

Sample module

★★ B.2 Modules and items within modules have a thoughtful naming/numbering convention (e.g. name the module "Module 1 - Skipjacks in the News - Chapter 1," or "M1-Skipjacks in the News-Chapter 1").

---UDL 2.2 Clarify syntax and structure

Modules follow a uniform naming/numbering structure. This enhances the student experience and streamlines their navigating the course.

For example:

• Module 1: Title
  • M1: Overview (or Introduction)
  • M1: Lesson
  • M1: Discussion
  • M1: Assignment
  • M1: Quiz
• Module 2: Title

★★ B.3 Modules begin with an Introduction/Overview page

---UDL 3.1 Activate or supply background knowledge

Each module includes an introductory page providing a description, objectives, list of activities, and relevant links/files. This sets student expectations at the module level.

Example Module Introductory page

★ B.4 Text headers and indentation are included within modules to help guide students. Design is consistent across modules with consistent terms and labels.

---UDL 2.2 Clarify syntax and structure

★ B.5 Offers access to a wide range of course specific resources to support content. All links, files, videos, and external URLs are active and working.

★ B.6 Provides activities and assignments that promote achievement of learning outcomes

---UDL 5.3 Build fluencies with graduated levels of support for practice and performance

★ B.7 Modules include at least one of three forms:

• Student-Student interaction (e.g. discussions and/or collaborative projects)
• Student-Teacher interaction (e.g. quality feedback expectations)
• Student-Content Interaction (e.g. engaging content and resources with which students must interact and not just read or watch)

---UDL 8.3 Foster collaboration and community

Use of discussion forums and group projects with expectations and prompts support Student-Student and Student-Content interaction.

While individual Student-Teacher interaction usually focuses on feedback provided through evaluation of submitted assignments, the intent here is for Student-Teacher interaction for all students in the course. This can be in follow-up prompts or comments from the teacher in discussion forums and course announcements summarizing feedback on submitted work.

★★ B.8 There is a "Ask the instructor" discussion

---UDL 8.3 Foster collaboration and community

★ B.9 Uses appropriate features of the LMS (gradebook, announcements, etc.)

---UDL 7.3 Minimize threats and distractions

★ B.10 Citations provided for attribution and copyright. Copyright law is followed throughout the course. Copyright statement included on the course home page.

---UDL 5.2 Use multiple tools for constructions and composition

---UDL 6.4 Enhance capacity for monitoring progress

★★★ B.14 Differentiation is evident (teaching materials, assignments and assessments take into account diverse learning styles, as well as other factors such as gender, culture, ethnicity, soioeconomic status and personal interests).

Canvas Guide - Differentiation

★★★ B.15 MasteryPaths are included

Canvas Guide - MasteryPaths

---UDL 7.2 Optimize relevance, value, and authenticity

From the Canvas Guide, "MasteryPaths allow instructors to configure differentiated learning content that is automatically delivered to students based on their individual source assignment scores."

This is an adaptive learning approach. Consult the Teaching and Learning Center.

★★ B.16 Encourages self and/or peer review by providing meaningful opportunities to reflect upon and informally evaluate draft work.
