Representation

Comprehension

Language & Symbols
In order for students to access information, the teacher should clarify vocabulary in every content area. They should support when needed in decoding text, or math notations and symbols.
Perception
Modifying visual and auditory instruction by providing multiple tools and strategies for students to access the information.

Engagement

Self-Regulation
Students should be able to self-regulate and self-assess when necessary, and teach them the coping skills needed to work through frustrations.
Sustaining Effort & Persistence
This part of the framework is dedicated to the creation of a collaborative community in the classroom, where the teacher can create objectives together with the students, and provide timely and structured feedback to students' work.
Recruit Interest
Recruiting student's interest should be done by providing students with multiple opportunities to choose the task, as well as offering always relevance, and authenticity to the learning to bring up the students' motivation.
