Abstract

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is another perspective about educational training. It is regarded as an essential implement in the pre-emptive planning of manageable and usable all inclusive learning and teaching methods, and environments. Classroom use of UDL includes the utilization of innovation and different methods of instruction among others as captured in its three core principles of representation, expression and engagement. The purpose of this investigation is to assess the compliance of the various teaching methods employed in Covenant University (CU) in Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria, with the UDL principles, with a view to identifying possible areas for improvements. CU is a private university whose goal is to be one of the best ten universities in the world by 2022. Thus the need to have its teaching methods conforms to international best practices. The study employed a qualitative research approach using structured interview specifically designed for the research to collect data. The analyzed data is presented using descriptive approach.
