M2 U3 Activity 2: Assistive Technologies for Intervention
Project Description
Overview Now that you have researched, reflected, and interviewed educators and policies to understand special education and the referral process, you will focus on interventions/accommodations and assistive technology for supporting the learning of students with disabilities. As a teacher, you may be required to implement the Individualized Education Program (IEP) for the students with disabilities in your classroom. Appropriate accommodations or interventions and assistive technology will help you create learning opportunities for struggling students and build their IEP. In this activity, you will work with your cohort to identify accommodations and assistive technology for the 14 disability categories in IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act). Performance outcomes
Candidates identify the different disability categories under IDEA and identify interventions, accommodations and assistive technology for students with specific disabilities under IDEA
What will you do?
Create a padlet with the 14 categories of disabilities as identified by IDEA with your cohort. This will be a single submission for the whole cohort. Add your cohort name on the top of the mind map.
For each category, research and include assistive technologies and other accommodations that can be used for struggling students. Link or add images, videos, and additional relevant information to the relevant categories within the group padlet.
On the padlet, be sure to sign in (create a free account if needed) so that your name will appear in each of your contributions. Make sure to add your cohort name on the padlet.
