Not STAAR Alt, Now What? Writing Supports for Office 365 Classrooms

***OPEN TO REGION ONE SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND CHARTER SCHOOLS ONLY***
According to the STAAR Alternate 2 Participation Requirements, your student no longer qualifies to take the state's alternate assessment. Now what? Come and learn how to support your student using writing support for Office 365 classrooms to help them access and participate in the general assessment. This session looks at alternatives to traditional writing tools for students who may have limitations in their ability to demonstrate learning via paper-pencil option. Explore software supports and features that already exist in Office 365 to support literacy. Readily available tools like text-to-speech, speech-to-text, word prediction, graphic organizers, and authoring tools can enable students with disabilities to access curriculum and be successful learners.
