Abstract

In this paper, we review 125 studies published between 2000 and early 2019, that investigated the use of UDL in early childhood through postsecondary education settings. High-lights of our results include the finding that basic conceptual-izations of UDL vary in significant ways, affecting the pos-sibility of drawing conclusions about its impact and effica-cy. UDL research is being disseminated to a variety of audi-ences, but is associated most frequently with special educa-tion. Research about UDL has increased and research quali-ty has improved.
