Beyond the Books
Why embed simulations, multimodal texts, games, and digital texts in the classroom?
"Harvard University's Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, rooted in three decades of pioneering research, are the foundation of our enriched learning experience. These principles champion the creation of curricula that accommodate individual learning differences through multiple means of representation, expression, and engagement, ensuring all learners have equal opportunities to succeed. Drawing from extensive research in the learning sciences, including cognitive neuroscience, our approach leverages UDL to foster inclusive, adaptive educational environments that recognize and realize every student's unique potential."
How to Embed Simulations, Multimodal Texts and Games
Simulations, multimodal texts and games combine multiple forms of media – including text, sound, images, and interactivity. According to research, exposure to these fosters engagement, problem solving, creativity and critical thinking skills.
