    Universal Design for Learning as a Diversity Measure

    Volume 18- Number 36 (October, 2025) - Universal Design for Learning as a measure of attention to diversity

    The Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as an educational framework allows individualizing the learning process in such a way that it becomes the backbone of the educational response to the demands required by the attention to diversity. Therefore, both curricular design and educational praxis require its evaluation in order to develop effective and inclusive formulas. In this sense, it is necessary to take into account the legislative framework that urges its establishment in the educational context. This call aims to promote evidence to confirm the impact of SAD on the learning process of students through the achievement of evidence-based practices.

    This new issue of the Journal of Learning Styles, to be published in October 2025, will promote the dissemination of pedagogical proposals that address the design, implementation and evaluation of educational resources applying strategies linked to the principles of Universal Design for Learning.

    Therefore, this call aims to publish research articles, studies, experiences and educational practices that highlight the following topics:

    - Educational Inclusion through Universal Design for Learning

    - Perceptions of educational agents: educational transformation through the visibilization of learning by applying Universal Design for Learning.
    - Proposals of different ways of integration and/or representation, praxis to reduce barriers, avoid discrimination and ensure inclusive learning processes.
    - Universal Design for Learning in physical education: Good practices and challenges in its implementation.
    - Learning situations in Spanish language: good practices and challenges in the application of Universal Design for Learning principles.
    Universal Design for Learning in mathematics: good practices and challenges in its implementation
    - Learning situations through accessible technological resources: good educational practices in applying Universal Design for Learning
    - Accessible and inclusive digital materials: Challenges and challenges in the application of Universal Design for Learning
    - Case studies using inclusive pedagogies in didactic specialties in some of the following educational stages: primary, secondary and university.

    - Inquiries from educational practice, in formal and non-formal education contexts. Universal measures of educational attention.

    Submission of proposals: Manuscripts may be submitted in the three official languages: English, Spanish and Portuguese. This issue is part of one of the priority lines of the DUAMAT project (Universal Design for Learning as a Diversity Attention Measure).

    Key Issues / Volume 17, Number 34

    It is important to generate a reflection on learning styles and the diversity of ways in which students learn nowadays. Therefore, teaching innovation groups or entities should contribute to the improvement of the quality of teaching and learning processes, as well as a reflection on the existing educational system and models.

    The main objective is to generate a significant impact on teaching practice and contribute to the improvement of the quality of teaching and learning processes, through the design, implementation and development of good innovative teaching practices that favour spaces for lifelong learning for our students and a collaborative culture that also allows for the professional development of teachers.Reference will be made to methodologies aimed at the development of students' personal, academic and social competences that favour the education of the whole person.

    This issue will promote the dissemination of studies, research results and proposals for intervention and innovation in educational contexts that address the impact of new methodologies and the management of learning spaces, which favour the training of professionals involved in the transformation of their environment.
