Developing a Universal Design for Learning Pedagogy: Perspectives of Students with and without Disabilities
Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, v44 n3 p444-453 2025
Introduction: Universal design for learning (UDL) is a pedagogical approach utilized to eliminate barriers. Often, UDL has been seen as a strategy implemented solely to benefit students with disabilities. However, recent research on the voices of students with and without disabilities in physical education illuminates a clear need for this educational approach. Purpose: While UDL has been utilized across a variety of subjects, this manuscript identifies the need for UDL implementation in physical education for all students. Method: A document analysis of 69 articles illuminated the voices of children with and without disabilities in physical education related to the components of UDL. Careful analysis of these studies identified voices related to each component of UDL. Results/Conclusions: The results illustrate the need for a call-to-action to promote an inclusive pedagogy that addresses learner variability. The infusion of the UDL approach can alleviate the negative experiences currently impacting children's experiences in the schools.
