UDL Guideline 9.3 Develop self-assessment and reflection
Smart Alarm is a perfect app for developing self-assessment and reflection because it allows teachers to exercise care for the whole-student. This app offers aids to assist individuals in collecting, and charting their sleep patterns to monitoring their behavior and any changes affecting their bodies. This app supports this UDL guideline because it is designed for learners to monitor their bodies and emotions to identify any disruptions in sleep patterns that are impacting their ability to focus, their energy levels during instruction, and their overall self-care.

General Critique:
While this app has no direct curriculum connection, this app encourages metacognitive skills training. In keeping with a community-centered classroom, this app could be used to encourage a connection between the outside world and student classroom needs.
