UDL on Campus is a free online resource for postsecondary institutions and educators that offers tutorials and practical resources in UDL theory and practice for the unique needs of adult learners.

Researchers from CAST and Arizona State University developed and tested Writer’s Key, a web-based tool that guides and supports middle-school students in writing argumentative (persuasive) and informational (expository) compositions.

The goal of this project is to create a suite of implementation tools and professional learning resources for scaled and effective use of CAST’s evidence-based Science Notebook in a Universal Design for Learning Environment (SNUDLE).

The Multi-Gen Makers project is a collaboration with residents from Bayview Towers, a 200-unit affordable housing complex in Connecticut. Through a design-based research approach with iterative cycles of co-design, the project will develop and research a sustainable model for multigenerational making and learning that build the skills and dispositions that can support a STEM career trajectory.

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a framework to improve and optimize teaching and learning for all people based on scientific insights into how humans learn.

CAST investigates solutions to the most critical questions across preK–12, Higher Ed, and workforce, including questions related to equity, access, and outcomes. Building on an award-winning history, we co-design transformative solutions, improvement strategies, implementation systems and practices, and tools for learning.

Our technical assistance centers, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, offer universal, targeted, and intensive technical assistance for stakeholders.

CAST partnered with the Minority Student Achievement Network (MSAN) to create a web-based professional development course to help 8th-grade science teachers understand stereotype threat and adopt UDL-based methods to reduce the likely effects of stereotype threat in their everyday instruction.
