“Universal design for learning is achieved by means of flexible curricular materials and activities that provide alternatives for students with disparities in abilities and backgrounds. These alternatives should be built into the instructional design and operating systems of educational materials—they should not have to be added on later.”
—Jay Dolmage, “Creating Universal Design Pedagogy for Disability Studies Courses”
