Abstract
As early childhood education professionals increasingly integrate apps into their classroom settings to support literacy development, they are challenged to effectively connect Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles with apps and a pedagogy that leads to outcomes. The EXPECT IT-PLAN IT-TEACH IT conceptual framework for integrating apps and other 21st Century technologies into the curriculum provides guidance for making such connections. An overview of the framework and its relationship to instructional strategies and assessment is presented, coupled with descriptions of three prominent apps having UDL features and which hold potential to support literacy development. Examples of how the apps are connected to instructional methods and integration strategies are provided.
