Universal Design for Learning guides
instructional planning to provide all students
with multiple ways to overcome their
barriers and learn.
9. How Does UDL Do This?
Universal Design for Learning uses three
guiding principles to ensure a flexible
approach that meets individual needs.
Provide…
•Multiple Means of Representation
•Multiple Means of Action and Expression
•Multiple Means of Engagement
10. UDL and iPad Apps
Universal Design for Learning uses
technology, such as iPad applications, to
meet specific needs.
11. iPad Apps Help Autism
There are many iPad applications available
that have been created to help children with
autism.
12. Meeting in the Middle
iPad applications are used with the three
Universal Design for Learning principles to
help children with autism overcome their
barriers.
13. Multiple Means of Representation
This principle of UDL uses iPad applications
that present information and content in
different ways to reduce the barriers of
abnormal sensory responses, social
interactions, and building relationships.
14. Multiple Means of Action and Expression
This principle of UDL uses iPad applications
that differentiate the ways students can
express what they know to reduce the

15. Multiple Means of Engagement
This principle of UDL uses iPad applications
that stimulate interest and motivation to
reduce the barriers of repetitive patterns,

Not much research has been conducted on
the impacts that iPad applications have on
children with autism.
However, educators, parents, and many
