    Processes That Support Learning: 
Metacognition, Executive Function, and Self-Regulation

    This infographic focuses on how metacognition, executive function, and self-regulation play important roles in student learning. It explains how students use these skills to plan, monitor, and adjust their thinking and behavior to reach learning goals, while also using feedback to help them recognize and track their progress and make necessary adjustments. Also discussed is how technology components, like Adobe Spark, enhance learning by supporting creativity, critical thinking, and independence. By using technology tools, educators can create engaging and meaningful lessons that help students become more independent, motivated, and engaged learners.

UDL- Week 5

       The article "Professional Development with Universal Design for Learning: Supporting Teachers as Learners to Increase the Implementation of UDL" by Stephanie L. Craig, Sean J. Smith, and Bruce B. Frey (2022) discusses the results of how professional development, focused on the implementation of UDL, has a positive effect on the teacher and the teacher’s students. UDL is an educational framework aimed at improving teaching and implementing accommodations for the learning process of all students. The article discusses how there are increasing numbers of ESL students and SPED students (or IEP students) resulting in teachers having to teach many different “types” of students in one class. Having professional development available to teach different ways to accommodate these students, or adapt their lesson plans to fit specific needs increases the teacher’s ability to reach each student. “ The consensus among researchers offers that seven critical elements need to...
