Description:  

 Are you looking for ways to meet the diverse needs that your students bring to the classroom?  Do you want to know how to work more collaboratively with your colleagues both at your grade level and across your building to support students who need different levels of support and challenge in the classroom? 

 

This course seeks to move beyond meeting mere compliance targets, beyond interventions and resource room/pull out settings, and towards raising the learning expectations for ALL students including students with disabilities, students who are gifted, students who are culturally and linguistically diverse, students who are at-risk, and students who are underperforming so that ALL students receive high quality instruction and support and challenge where and when they need it. 

 

This 3 day course will guide the participants through this process, showing the connections between using research-based instructional practices of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) within a literacy framework and using the Ohio learning standards and related tools to identify strengths and challenges for children in order to address their unique needs.

 

This professional learning opportunity is a series that requires active participation from all participants both during the three face-to-face sessions and outside the sessions. 

Each participant will receive 30 contact hours made up of the following: 

 

3 Face-to-face sessions- 15 hours

Readings- 3 hours

Discussion boards- 4 hours

Assignments (lesson plans, assessment design, communication plans) - 8 hours

Because one very important aspect of quality planning is collaboration among professionals, a team is required to attend (minimally teams must include a content specialist/general educator, an interventionist and an administrator).

 

By registering for this course, it is the expectation that participants will complete all activities in order to receive 30 contact hours (participants may purchase 2 graduate credits from Ashland for $400 in lieu of contact hours.  Please note:    participants are to complete all activities whether for graduate credit OR contact hours.
