Hello, UDL Team! Are you ready? I can't wait to get started with this book study blog. As I write this on the week before the book blog starts we have a great group of participants working together as a true professional learning community. I hope everyone has a valuable experience reading and discussing this book and expanding your skills with your content and technology so we can move all students toward proficiency. As we use the blog as a tool for our study, we can also see how such tools can be used in the classroom. Each week during the period we will suggest reading a certain number of chapters and several questions relating to the book will be posted on the blog site as part of our professional development component. As our grant participation requires, participants will access the blog and respond to the book study questions. You are welcome to post as many comments as possible and not only reply to the original question, but any comment on a question as well. Our hope is to create an online conversation about this book.
