Abstract
To make education available to all students, educators can apply the Differentiated Instruction framework, the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework, or both. However, some educators do not distinguish between the Differentiated Instruction and UDL frameworks. Therefore, this paper discusses the differences between these frameworks in light of the frameworks’ histories, definitions, educational contexts, education legislation, principles, and guidelines.
