The process of creating a lesson plan that takes the needs of many diverse learners into account is a reality of being a teacher in the 21st century. Cultural, economic, and disability issues as well as district budget constraints affect the education that our students will receive; we as technology leaders need to search out and utilize the most effective tools to ensure our students are getting a superior educational experience to produce citizens that can be competetive in a global economy.
I found the CAST website and the Universal Design for Learning a great resource for offering teachers tools and direction in creating lesson plans that can achieve the goal of making sure all students not only meet the objectives of the TEKS in all subjects, but to excel and engage them in the learning process at all levels. The information I continue to collect from the Educational Technology Leadership program through Llamar University will be invaluable in my future endeavors to improve the educational experinece of my students as well as students in surrounding districts.
