Assessment refers to various methods utilized to gauge and track student learning. Depending on multiple factors such as learning objectives, student learning needs, and learning environments, assessment may be adapted for specific learning scenarios. Adaptation of assessments is especially vital for online environments, as delivery of content, student engagement and motivation, and other activities and factors, may be significantly different from face-to- face learning environments. Adopting Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles as a framework in adapting assessments for online environments promotes the utilization of multiple means to engage students and assess the content’s learning objectives.
