Gaining a basic Understanding of Universal Design for Learning

I have immersed myself in the pool of UDL, only to discover that reading even the smallest entry on UDL exposes the learner to a myriad of hyperlinks that can consume the better part of a day. A better analogy would be to say I have dipped my toes in the pool of UDL. At the core Universal Design for Learning can't help but gain approval. It makes sense to bend the curriculum to fit the student's learning style instead of the reverse; yet my initial reaction to viewing the steps to identification, then thinking about a class of 28 students; and adding 15 different students for the changing reading groups - leaves me feeling overwhelmed and exhausted.
Before reading on, I offer you access to the base line definition and then we will delve into the nuts and bolts.
