    There are new web 2.0 tools appearing every day. Although some of these tools were not originally meant for use in the classroom, they can be extremely effective learning tools for today's technology geared students and their venturesome teachers. Many of these teachers are searching for the latest products and technologies to help them find easier and efficient ways to create productive learning in their students. More and more teachers are using blogs, podcasts and wikis, as another approach to teaching. We have created a list of 100 tools we think will encourage interactivity and engagement, motivate and empower your students, and create differentiation in their learning process.

    "The Internet Classroom Guide With the Internet, teachers have the tools to open a new world to their students. The learning experience is enhanced by interactive activities and virtual field trips, which is much more interesting than traditional methods. Other than that, students can learn how to do research on the Internet, and practice online safety when they are doing Internet exercises. Here are some resources for teachers who want to introduce their students to the Internet classroom."

    The videos are very informative about purpose of visual notetaking.  I really enjoyed watching Rachel Smith's video.  This might be an interesting way to teach students who are visual but have problems with handwriting. think about students who can doodle but can't write.

introduction supporting students disabilities development curriculum schools education parapros aides

shared by Patrick Black on 29 Apr 12 - No Cached
  • Lately I have been working with a number of parents and schools during this busy time of year, when IEPs are needing to be revisited and plans for next year put in place for kids with disabilities (take a minute to read my posts about IEPs for some ideas of where to begin and important things to think about during this very necessary, and hopefully meaningful, process). During the conversations I have been having lately, it dawned on me that when people are planning for next year and thinking about what did or didn’t work well this year, the use of paraprofessionals to support kids with disabilities is a central issue that can make or break a student’s success. IEPs that include paraprofessionals must consider quality professional development and the time to do that development effectively for paraprofessionals. Now is the time to start thinking about how that can look, and planning when it will happen. I have a great resource to offer.

    Ideas here teach students to use concrete objects to symbolize their feelings. Useful when students are upset and lack self control or developmental ability to verbalize. The objects are: - Toolbox: tools to handle conflicts - Bubble or bubble wand: personal space - Foam dice: choice of actions to rectify a situation OR choices of communication Etc.

    Apportunities with iPads is a forum originally designed for 20 teachers and parents in the state of Minnesota who are involved in an iPad Project with children who have deaf-blindness. The intent of this forum is to establish a tool that will allow teachers and parents within this project to connect and share experiences about the use of the iPad as an instructional tool with this population of learners. The broader intent of this forum is to weave together the ever-changing face of app use within the field of special education and students with severe and multiple disabilities.

    Differentiating instruction is a time-tested way of thinking about meeting students' needs as they make progress toward achievement or learning targets.  Differentiation is an elegant mindset that suggests to teachers a framework that permits them to engage students while focusing on learning results, and digital technologies offer many opportunities to differentiate instruction in meaningful ways.  However, differentiating instruction takes a concerted planning effort on our parts as teachers and teacher educators. This is especially so as we develop a mindset that differentiation can be effective. In this post, I propose a three-phase approach to planning differentiated instruction: Where do we start planning for differentiated instruction with technology, What are considerations for who we teach, what we teach, and how we plan? How do I put it all together?

  • Abstract As we invite students to compose and collaborate in online spaces, wikis have emerged as a primary tool for writing. While wikis sometimes have a negative connotation in academic circles -- any discussion of Wikipedia will assuredly bring out a range of emotions in teachers and researchers -- the basic principles of wiki writing offers students many opportunities to draft, publish, and revise their work. Moreover, wikis provide opportunities for students to develop online communities, embed additional web-based media into their writing, and monitor their own work over time. This segment of our workshop will invite you to become a wiki writer, seeing the possibilities for yourself and allowing you to set up your own class wiki in the process.

    This informative, fast moving presentation will describe the revolution in computing that is occurring around us and how that change will affect the people who use assistive technology as well as those who support them. From Apple's iOS (the operating system used on the iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad) back to the One Laptop per Child XO, this session will give participants the background knowledge to understand what the new technologies consist of, how they work, and how they can be used to help students. A review of how the iOS can be used in the following domains will be provided: assistive technology, communication, literacy, learning, organization, and play.
