WAITING for UDL
Don Glass and Kim Willey created this animation to address key questions about UDL in the form of a dialog between two animated characters. The animation tools provide an engaging way to enliven the information through dramatic gesture, sound effects, and camera angles.

The VSA/Accessibility Department of the Kennedy Center just hosted a national forum on Examining the Intersection of Arts Education and Special Education on July 26 and 27. This event gathered "thought leaders" from the disabilities studies, arts education, and special education fields to make an action plan. UDL was included in the curriculum and professional development discussions. Let's see what happens next!
