Abstract

This chapter explores the use of smartphones, a category of mobile learning, as learning devices that align well with tenets of universal design for learning (UDL). The theoretical foundation for this use is explored along with pertinent research. The chapter continues with an exploration of specific apps that reflect the tenets of UDL even as they promote learning, specifically executive function, collaboration, and knowledge acquisition and expression. Guidelines for select and successfully using apps as learning tools are provided along with a discussion of barriers to use. Recommendations for use, including actionable ideas for integration, are provided.
