Sam give quick and easy ways to start a shift in your classroom. Learn how to get your students involved in self reflection, real time feedback to guide lessons, and ....STOP giving direct instruction!? That's right. Sam shares how he made that one big change--no more standing in front of the class giving information--and how it revolutionized student engagement.We talk about standardized testing, getting rid of letter grades to focus on mastery, and more next generation concepts that will stop unwanted behaviors in your classroom because your students are too busy learning!I (Hollye) have been a huge fan and follower of Sam's for more than 5 years. His no nonsense, easy to follow guidance helped me create inclusive opportunities with every student I worked with. AND...the learning was FUN! Universal Design Learning (UDL) goes beyond a few modifications or accessibility features. Sam gives us a schema for UDL that will help you shift how you view student interaction. Listen in and get inspired!
