"The Sensory Learning NZ website is the home of the Sensory Learning Toolkit (SLTNZ). The SLTNZ has been designed primarily for practitioners of students with Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD). We have researched, tried and tested tools to gather data and approaches to learning that are suitable and relevant to this group of students. Tools that show the very small and often subtle changes in student behaviour that show learning and how they learn. At the heart of the SLTNZ is the belief that 'everyone is learner', starting from a base of 'presuming competence' and celebrating achievements. The overriding framework and approach however can be used with higher functioning students of all ages. The tools used to gather data will change but the process will be the same."
