Univeral Design for Learning

Stories created on bookbuilder.org qualify as UDL sources because of the features the internet site offers. With all UDL's, we are trying to connect as much material as we possibly can to all of the students in the classroom. This is easier said then done. In all classrooms, there are all types of diversity, so with things like this internet site we used to create our own story, we try to reach out to those different diversities. There's an audio feature that would be useful for people visually impaired, there is also a feature that allows the creator to translate his/her work into another language which would be awesome if you, as a teacher, were trying to help some ELL students within the classroom. The pictures are good for beginning readers of all diversities because it allows them to match what is being read to what is going on in the story. With all of the features of the story building website, it doesn't matter what subject is being discussed because there are many ways of adapting the reading to suit multiple needs that a classroom may have
