Abstract

Students with intellectual disabilities have developmental delays in many areas. During the learning process, students with disabilities have difficulty remembering and quickly forget the knowledge and skills they have learned. Students with intellectual disabilities have limitations in linguistic thinking, so they encounter many difficulties when learning Vietnamese subjects. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach used by many educators in the field of inclusive education. UDL allows for the provision of flexible teaching strategies and methods that meet the needs of students. This article presents the principles of UDL version 3.0 in 2024 and the application of the principles in teaching Vietnamese subjects to students with intellectual disabilities in grade 2 inclusion. Applications such as adjusting the way information is displayed, supporting many ways of receiving information, and illustrating lessons using many media... are illustrated through examples in specific lessons.
