An Ohio school is using iPods and iPads with its students who have multiple disabilities for reading and to improve students' communication, which can help to reduce their frustration levels. Educators say the devices cost less than traditional assistive technology and appear more mainstream, which may concern students in middle or high school.

shared by Patrick Black on 29 Apr 12 - No Cached

My last post introduced you to this valuable curriculum resource. As I said in that post, the timing of taking a closer look at paraprofessional staff development is purposeful at this point of the year. When reviewing IEPs and writing new ones for next year, we look forward to how students will be supported within general education successfully. Paraprofessionals are a piece of that puzzle that cannot and should not be overlooked or under-acknowledged. I do not believe everyone needs a paraprofessional to be successful in general education classrooms and settings, but when individual needs warrant it, then those paraprofessionals must be trained to do their jobs well.
