A Technology Exemplar: Post-Textbook UDL Materials

这项建议是为了根据通用的学习设计(UDL)原则，为3-6年级开发技术丰富的科学课程范例。该项目将创建足够的材料来测试该方法的有效性，并提供一个范例，可以启发更多的内容和进一步的发展。计划编写一套丰富的专业发展材料，以支持教师在课堂上实施UDL科学课程。探测器用于实验室调查，计算模型用于虚拟环境中的实验。该产品包括七个为期两周的查询模块，以能源为主题，基于国家标准。这些模块通过驾驶问题让学生参与进来，比如“为什么会有云？”和“植物吃什么？”这两种查询都提供了可变脚手架。将开发图形和建模软件，可以使用文本和发声以及各种表示格式来表达数据和关系。在马萨诸塞州阿克顿、安克雷奇、AK、马里维尔、密苏里州和加利福尼亚州弗雷斯诺，共有25个测试教室计划参与材料的形成性和终结性测试。

This proposal is for the development of technology-rich science curriculum exemplars for grades 3-6 based on Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles. The project will create sufficient materials to test the effectiveness of the approach and provide an exemplar that can inspire additional content and further development. A rich set of professional development materials to support teacher implementation of UDL science curriculum in the classroom is planned. Probes are used for lab investigations and computational models are used for experimentation in virtual environments.The products include seven two-week inquiry modules united by an energy theme and based on national standards. The modules engage students through driving questions, such as "Why are there clouds?" and "What do plants eat?" Variable scaffolding is provided for both kinds of inquiry. Graph and modeling software will be developed that can express data and relationships using text and vocalization as well as various representational formats. A total of twenty-five test classrooms in Acton, MA, Anchorage, AK, Maryville, MO, and Fresno, CA plan to participate in formative and summative testing of the materials.
