This assignment requires you to consider the application of the principles of Universal Design for Learning to design one lesson in your chosen subject or key learning area. Contextualise the lesson using one of the case studies provided or a case from your own experience. If the latter, you will need to briefly provide details of this case. [Note: If you believe that you require additional details from one of the case studies provided, you may create those details yourself but indicate where you have done this.] Identify the class context (case study or own description). Select and identify for one year level (7-10) one learning outcome from the Australian Curriculum (AC) in your chosen subject or key learning area. Describe no more than two specific lesson outcomes that would be derived from the broader AC outcome. Be very precise. What will be acceptable evidence that learners have achieved these outcomes? What learning experiences and instruction would achieve these outcomes? In order that all learners might be included, use two or more of the principles of UDL to describe the learning experiences and instruction that you have designed, providing multiple means of representation (how); providing multiple means of action and expression (what); providing multiple means of engagement Make reference to peer-reviewed literature to support your choice of learning experience and instruction. Assessment Criteria Identify context and content; demonstrate knowledge and understanding of aspects of development and characteristics of students.
