Learner variability is just how it sounds-the way people learn varies. Design and Deliver describes learners as 3-dimensional. Learners can vary not only between subjects in their preferences, but also in their learning environments. There is no one way to cater to a classroom's learning needs, so UDL helps teachers to prepare and be proactive for the variability that will be present. The text also states that UDL allows for a "flexible learning" environment. This proactive look at designing a learning environment allows the teacher to be ready for every learner, no matter their learning preference. Using UDL allows teachers to look for patterns in students' variability which will allow for more effective planning.
