Active Learning for Students with Complex Access Needs Summer Academy

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Empower Your Students with multiple disabilities through Active Learning!

Are you an educator working in an adaptive learning environment, supporting individuals who are functioning at the fundamental levels of learning? If so, this transformative 4-day workshop is designed just for you!

Active Learning is a research-based approach developed by Dr. Lilli Nielsen, specifically for learners who function developmentally below 48 months—regardless of their chronological age. This approach is especially effective for students with significant physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges, including those with cerebral palsy, visual impairments, autism, hearing impairments, and multiple disabilities.

Many learners with complex access needs often become passive observers in their own world, relying on others for interaction. Active Learning changes that! This approach empowers students to take charge of their learning by creating environments that spark curiosity, encourage independence, and promote meaningful engagement.

Join us to discover simple yet powerful strategies that will transform how your students explore, interact, and thrive!

Day 1: Principles part 1
