Abstract

This chapter serves as an introduction to the volume. It sets out key information about Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in order to support the reader as they navigate the various narratives of field practitioners and implementers who analyze their journey with UDL in the K-12 sector. The chapter also examines the current landscape in relation to UDL implementation and offers some broad ecological observations as regards the contemporary state of play. It broadens the discussion to the global scale and discusses geo-political divergences that will support the international reader as they connect the material to their own regional context. The chapter highlights certain themes that appear as either facilitators or stressors in teachers' journeys with UDL, themes that will be echoed by the various chapters, and analyzes in more depth within them.
