Myth of The Average Learner
UDL
"Average Learner"
The average learner is able to sit in a seat for hours at a time, learn through whatever teaching style the teacher presents, and all students learn in the same way. GATE students don't have special needs.
The Truth
Not all students are able to learn the same way. Not one design for instruction is better than another. All students can and will learn based on universal design for learning.
