What is universal design for learning?
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach to designing curricula that eliminates barriers in the learning environment in order to improve educational experiences for all learners.

instructional goals and objectives
methods of instructional delivery
materials used for learning
assessments
```
154
What is usability?
Usability determines how easy a design’s user interface is to use and how functional a product or design is.
Key components of usability assess:
How easy it is for users to learn the basic tasks of the interface;
If users can perform those tasks quickly;
If users can recall performing those tasks after time away from the interface;
The number of errors, the severity of errors, and recovery from errors in the interface; and
If the design satisfies users.
155
What do usability and accessibility have in common?
Components for usability evaluation can also be applied to accessibility and UD
Create products that are easy and efficient to use.
Both accessible and universal design are concerned with addressing the needs of users beyond those considered to be "average" or “typical."
Accessibility increases the chances of more people being able to use a product or design regardless of their abilities, making it more usable
More overlap occurs between usability and accessibility when accessibility practices increase usability for everyone and usability increases accessibility.
156

Accessible: Focused on those with disabilities
Universal Design: Focused on design for all people
Usability: Focused on a specified set of users
157

There will always be accessibility needs, must be embedded into process, full time jobs, hiring with disabilities, HR involvement
159
Myth: Accessibility should be the last step
Truth: Designing for Accessibility is much easier than retrofitting for accessibility
Last-min approach leads to bad design/UX, A11Y can be difficult at this point, it might not get done at all, self-perpetuating cycle, systematic regret, legal liability
160
Myth: Accessibility is hard & expensive
Truth: Cost of accessibility is reasonable when compared to the cost of the alternative
Maintaining an accessible system is cost effective, lawsuits are expensive, negative publicity is expensive
161
