Product Description:

Universal design is a concept that began in the field of architecture, but has been quickly expanding into environmental initiatives, recreation, the arts, health care, and now, education. The purpose of this report is to explore the development of universal design and to consider its application to large scale assessments. Seven elements of universally designed assessments are identified and described in this report. Numerous resources relevant to each of the elements are identified, with specific suggestions for ways in which assessments can be designed from the beginning to meet the needs of the widest range of students possible.
