Ms. Randall thought about her lesson both from the perspective of a traditional lesson presentation and from the perspective of Universal Design for Learning. She compares both approaches to help her make decisions about how to work with the diverse student population she has in her third period math class. As she plans her lesson, she considers these four main components:

Goals for instruction
• Media and materials to be used by the students
• Instructional strategies that he will use
• Means of assessment

Since she is particularly concerned about the abstract nature of experimental and theoretical probability and her students' lack of background for the topic, she decides to have students work in pairs to first complete the problems on a textbook page. She then plans to demonstrate the digital spinner from the Shodor website and use that for a whole class activity.
