Increasing learning opportunities for all students: A hands-on iPad workshop

Even the best educators struggle to meet the learning needs of all students, especially in special and inclusive education settings, where students need extra support with developmental, communication, or behavioral needs. However, all students benefit from consistent visuals that help them build and activate knowledge and communicate what they have learned.

These workshops will explore cutting-edge tools and strategies that make teaching easier and increase learning opportunities for all students, including AAC users. These approaches are designed to help you deliver grade-level lessons while effectively supporting students with complex learning support needs.
