Classroom Strategy
Provide alternative way for students to express thoughts during class discussions if they are uncomfortable verbalizing them.
Likely Effort Level for Educator
Medium
Relation to UDL
Action/Expression; students with the potential to make contributions to discussions but have trouble verbalizing could express those contributions another way.
Technology or Other Required Resources
Digital whiteboard
OneNote
Shared Word Document
(Take one of these and put it on your projector. Students that wish not to speak can put their ideas/contributions on what’s being projected in real-time.)
