Our Favorite Remote/eLearning Strategies for Engagement for Students with Autism & Other Complex Needs

Date/Location:

February 25, 2021

Description:

Remote, eLearning and hybrid learning models provide unique challenges for Special Education Teachers. The “classroom” has changed and educators need to create connections with their students through a computer screen as well as keep them engaged to promote interest in learning. Even if a class is currently being conducted in person, educators need ideas in case they pivot to a remote model. We have gathered ideas from teachers across the country utilizing web-based programs, apps and regular household objects which will keep students engaged and learning.

Speakers:

Torrie Turner

Laura Cuthbertson
