• Promoting Achievement through Technology and INstruction for all Students

     

    Mission: Since 2003, the PATINS Project has assisted 44 Indiana schools in implementing Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to the area of literacy/math in their classrooms. Each selected school, referred to as a pilot site, is committed to a three year partnership with PATINS, creating an action plan with UDL framework using supportive technology, developing appropriate tools for data collection, and assessing the effectiveness of their projects on their students.
