In Canyons School District, we believe that all stakeholders benefit from purposeful technology integration within the learning process, focusing on student achievement. Educational technology will be used to empower teachers, students, and other stakeholders to gain the knowledge and skills needed to adapt, create, consume, and connect responsibly and ethically with the broader world in preparation for meaningful life opportunities.

"Designing for All: UDL in Elementary” is a professional learning session that explores how Universal Design for Learning (UDL) supports inclusive practices in elementary classrooms. Participants learn the three UDL principles—Engagement, Representation, and Action & Expression—and how proactive design increases equitable access for students with IEPs while benefiting all learners. Through real-world examples, collaborative activities, and lesson planning practice, educators explore practical strategies such as choice, visuals, assistive technology, and flexible assessments. The session emphasizes that small, intentional design changes can create more inclusive, effective learning environments for every student.
This session will equip secondary science teachers with practical strategies to shift from content delivery to student sensemaking. Grounded in 3D learning and Utah SEEd standards, participants will explore how to use phenomena, questioning, and structured discourse to help students construct and revise scientific explanations. Teachers will engage in a model lesson, analyze classroom strategies, and leave with tools they can immediately implement in their own PLCs and classrooms.
Andrew is the High School Science Specialist for the Instructional Supports Department. He is passionate about the implementation of 3D science in classrooms.
