Universal design for learning (UDL) is often a key component of inclusive education. That is, services for students with disabilities participating in the general education classroom experience UDL in order to support their academic, behavioral, and social success. However, despite the policy support for UDL service delivery models, to-date there has been little research about the efficacy of UDL.

A newly published meta-analysis study analyzing 20 recent research studies provides new insight about the research effectiveness of UDL. The purpose of this webinar is to provide participants with a guided tour of this important research in order to understand its implications for local UDL programming. Previous research experience is not required to participate in this webinar. Emphasis will be placed on the practical application of research evidence (rather than the statistical analysis and interpretation).

The presentation is organized in three sections:

Part 1 – Foundations
1.1 Universal design for learning as a construct
1.2 Principles of conducting a review of the research literature
1.3 Inclusion/exclusion criteria

Part 2 – An Introduction to Meta-analysis
2.1 Experimental and control groups
2.2 Meta-analysis procedures
2.3 Effect size

Part 3 – Key Findings
3.1 Effectiveness of UDL by grade level
3.2 Effectiveness of UDL by subgroup
3.3 Deciding what outcomes to measure

Part 4 – Discussion
4.1 Questions and answers (Q&A)

Participants will be encouraged to download the specially designed webinar web page in order to have a personal archive of the research and resources presented.

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to:

Identify distinguishing features of meta-analysis and a review of the literature.
Define the term effect size and specify its importance when analyzing research.
Interpret the key finds of the King-Sears et al (2023) UDL meta-analysis.
Consider how the UDL research findings can be used within their organization.
