Tracks: Future of EdTech Special Education

In this BYOD workshop, the presenters will discuss and demonstrate a wide range of technology that can support K-12 students who struggle with reading, writing and maintaining attention. Nicole Feeney and Eric Feeney will discuss three case studies involving students with attention deficit disorders and specific learning disabilities to offer practical assistive technology implementation advice you can apply in your schools. You'll learn ways to successfully intervene for students who have both diverse needs and learning strengths, as is common in general ed settings. What's more, you'll learn a variety of realistic technology-based interventions to address common and complex learning barriers that arise in your general education classrooms — making this a unique and valuable professional learning opportunity for assistive technology professionals and special and general education teacher teams!
