Equipment: Learn how to use various pieces of equipment (both things you buy and things you can make) with each student to meet his/her needs in developing motor, cognitive, social, emotional and perceptual skills. Active Learning is an instructional approach developed by Dr. Lilli Nielsen of Denmark. It is an instructional strategy for individuals who are blind, visually impaired, deaf/blind, developmentally functioning below 48 months old regardless of chronological age, and learners with significant physical, cognitive, and emotional delays. Individuals with multiple disabilities (including cerebral palsy, visual impairment, cognitive impairment, autism, hearing impairment, etc.) are at great risk from developing reliance on others to interact with the world around them. Active Learning recognizes that every child/adult with special needs is unique and emphasizes simple ways to change the environment so that a child becomes an active participant and an engaged learner.

It is an instructional strategy for individuals who are blind, visually impaired, deaf/blind, developmentally functioning below 48 months old regardless of chronological age, and learners with significant physical, cognitive, and emotional delays. Individuals with multiple disabilities (including cerebral palsy, visual impairment, cognitive impairment, autism, hearing impairment, etc.) are at great risk from developing reliance on others to interact with the world around them. Active Learning recognizes that every child/adult with special needs is unique and emphasizes simple ways to change the environment so that a child becomes an active participant and an engaged learner.

Our ESC Collaboration has been putting Texas school-based SLPs first since 2012. We offer top quality webinars with highly respected presenters in the field of communication. Our interactive webinar series has proven to be an excellent source of continuing education for speech-language pathologists and other school staff. Join us in learning all year long through eleven exceptional online opportunities. Reinforce your current knowledge and add new tools to your tool box. In collaboration with ALL twenty Education Service Centers, we deliver highly relevant topics that impact SLPs every day; all conveniently accessed from your location. Writing, beyond handwriting, is a complex communication process that is learned and shaped over time. It involves the use of text and allows for improved self-expression, increased independence, and active participation in the community. It is an expected outcome of our current education system yet many students with disabilities, especially those with complex communication needs, have limited access to writing tools, writing opportunities, and writing expectations. This session will highlight the importance of including access to the letters of the alphabet in combination with other symbol sets when developing communication systems, highlight alternative writing tools, and it will provide simple strategies that can be applied early and across settings to promote long-term writing expectations and writing habits to support communication.
