Overview of Presentation:
Experience the feeling of being a special education
student. See and hear the rationale for using technology in any
classroom. View success of twice-exceptional students. Explore Internet
resources for families, and special education students, as well as for
educators involved in preparing our next generation of certified special
education teachers. All the above will be delivered in an engaging
format, followed by a Questions and Answers Session.
Introduction:
As educators, we develop methodologies for teaching the Special
Education population. It may be interesting to first experience how it
feels to be “Special” and “Challenged”.
1.
Experience Being Challenged
While sitting in your chair, lift your right foot off the
floor and make clockwise circles.
Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air
with your right hand.
Your foot will change direction and there is nothing you can do about
it!
Discuss with a neighbor: Did it work for you? How does it make you feel?
Relate it to a Special Education Class

Why use Technology?

Technology
in the inclusion setting, presupposes that technology is present,
working and available for use within a classroom. It also presupposes
that the teachers, staff and administrators are experienced, comfortable
in using this most powerful tool.
Our
audience is comprised of renowned educators in the field of education
and special education. Please consider this gathering a sharing of views
and resources. Through the power of technology, all that you see and
experience here will be available to reference or share with others on
our website
