Universal Design for Learning is a great way to think about supporting learners - but did you know it's also a great way to think about doing research? In this podcast episode, Dr. Samantha Daley talks about her wonderful article on using UDL to inform research.

In particular, my deepest gratitude to Jeff Greene for his editorial stewardship. I learned so much from his incisive and constructive feedback, and sincerely value his championing of our ideas as we've worked to weave them together.

I want to publicly thank the outgoing editors, Jeff Greene and Lisa Linnenbrink-Garcia, for leading the field in affirming that disability is not a peripheral issue, but central to the work we do as educational psychologists, & that students with disabilities matter in both scholarship and practice.

So while my primary hope is that you (yep, you) design your next study actively recruiting students with disabilities to be in it, I also hope that reading the articles helps you strike up a conversation with a colleague about these ideas too.

...which means we've had a number of years to name these ideas and hear each other's perspectives and find consensus. Writing & editing these manuscripts helped us see where we disagreed or were talking past each other in ways that I think are truly valuable for all collaborators to experience.

Across the editorial team alone, we had one wedding, two promotions, three institutional moves, and three babies--with no gestational overlap--in the time between submitting the initial proposal and the issue going live...

I'm not doing these manuscripts any justice in this thread! They are thought-provoking yet accessible; clear and compelling. I'm so indebted to the authors & editorial team for their efforts on this special issue which has been *years* in the making.

Erik Hines, Renae Mayes, Donna Ford, Tanya Middleton, and James Moore III demonstrate how existing frameworks (like bioecological systems theories) can be transformed to amplify students' strengths and turn a critical eye on making real systemic change when rooted in Afrocentric cultural styles.

Samantha Daley argues that research in the field would be better--more robust, asking more interesting research questions and offering enriched insights--if researchers designed studies in the same way teachers are encouraged to design their classrooms: inclusive from the beginning.
Universal design of educational psychology? Improving theory and application by focusing on students with disabilities

It's here! The newest issue of @edpsychjournal.bsky.social asks: why aren't you including students with disabilities in your research?

Then, an amazing group of scholars demonstrate how and why they DO. I want to highlight a few aspects of the special issue in particular:

Turning pain into student learning gains
A slide with a picture of OSU coach Ryan Day. The slide heading reads “Dimensions of Attributions: Why did OSU lose to Michigan?” Also on the slide is a 2x2 grid representing the dimensions of attribution theory. As an example of stable, internal attribution, the text reads “I am irreparably bad at my job.”
