Universal Design for Assessment in mathematics
Résumé
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a commonly used framework for designing accessible learning environments. While UDL has been reportedly applied to testing situations, much less is known about how classroom assessment (e.g., formative assessment) could be designed accessible to support the learning of all students. In this conceptual study, the previously introduced idea of Universal Design for Assessment (UDA) is reformulated in the context of mathematics. It is argued that in the test-driven assessment culture of mathematics, UDA holds specific promise; recent studies have noted that mathematics assessment does not enable students with disabilities to participate fully due to inaccessible practices. The proposed framework discussed how UDA could promote the following guidelines in mathematics assessment: i) partnership, ii) diversity, and iii) dialogue.
