Katie Novak on How to Apply UDL (Now!) in Today’s Classrooms


Hi Reader,

Dr. Katie Novak is an internationally-renowned education consultant whose books on inclusive practices have sold more than 250,000 copies. She’s the guest on today’s new episode of The Authority Podcast and it’s a discussion you won’t want to miss.

Hear about key concepts from Novak’s latest book, the third edition of UDL Now!, as part of a discussion that covers the following and more:

  • Who should be doing UDL?
  • “Teachers are working too hard to not have a greater impact on learners.”
  • Understanding the similarities and differences between UDL and differentiated instruction (DI) — and why teachers should be doing both
  • The role of PLCs
  • The right amount of student voice and choice

These strategies help every student succeed in all schools and classrooms. Listen to the episode here: https://bit.ly/4aOJ6MO
