I learned that there are so different options for students with learning disabilities. We need to use our resources.
Learning more about the apps would be interesting! If I had that when I was younger, I would have been a much better student.
Student with disabilities have resources they can use such as apps.
I like the guided note taking approach for students with learning disabilities. We also have so much technology that many of these students have grown up with we should definitely be using these apps more in the classroom to accommodate the students with disabilities. Depending on the career path and the safety measures of the job they work on it may actually be acceptable for them to continue using these techniques in their post-secondary and professional endeavors.
I am glad there is learning apps and options for students with learning disabilities.
I haven't worked with students with disabilities in a few years, and I am pleasantly surprised at the number of apps that can support and enhance accommodations. It's amazing what some of them can do!
I believe providing them an outline to take notes from gives them a structure to help with understanding how notes can help them learn. I have a student who suffers from background noise issues, so I will wear a recording device as needed so the student can hear and playback my notes of instruction. So accomodations need to be followed and will truly help the student.
Students with disabilities have options.
Reasonable accommodations are those accommodations that do not fundamentally alter the nature of the courses and/or program in which the student is enrolled.
Students with LD do need certain accommodations to be successful. As times change, so does technology. Most students with LD are usually introduced to such apps during their secondary years of education. By the time they reach postsecondary learning, they are familiar with and have an understanding of how they work. Most usually have these apps installed to some type of electronic device.
I learned that there are ways to support disability of these students and that regular teaching methods may leave these students out of the class, do not participate in class participation because it may take them time to process what they are learning
Learning disabilities does not stop students for being successful in life
Students with disabilities have options on how to learn subject matter. Accommodations help the indiviual be successful.
I like the idea of cueing and preparing students ahead of time so that they know when you will call on them in class.
I learned that accommodations for an individual learner should modified and scaffolded in order for success.
The suggestion to provided guided notes for ALL students is a great reminder that differentiated instruction benefits all students, not just those impacted by a learning disability. It is important for these scaffolds to be built seamlessly into the class so that students do not feel singled out. Providing choices as much as possible allows students to self-select in ways to best meet their own learning needs.
There are apps that can help students who have disabilities to progress well with their learning.
I am getting more familiar with technology to both help myself and my learners.
have never though that students may not feel that they are respected by others and meerly seen as being lazy. i have to admit that I may also be guilty of making them think that because I , like many others, focus on results and how quickly they occur.
In my classroom, I already will call on students even if they don't have their hand raised. They expect this. More students come to class prepared, but I like the idea on using a cue for those students who have learning disabilities. I can see how this could lower an already anxious situation.
