Future of EdTech Inclusion & Special Education
Rigorous state standards require higher level thinking, finding multiple solutions for real world problems, and collaborative problem solving. A new Supreme Court decision emphasizes the need to challenge students with special needs with appropriately ambitious rigor. Educational technology, strategically selected, can be the right tool for meeting these challenges! This session will provide guidelines for selecting technology tools that support access to rigorous academic standards. Gain an overview of technology tools that will enhance core concepts and learning skills while not distracting from the essential learning targets. Guidelines, decision-making rubrics, suggested tools, checklists, and important tips will be provided for practitioners, administrators, speech-language clinicians, general education teachers, and special education staff.
