Think of a student with a disability you have now or in the past. Describe ways in which their disability affected their learning in your class.
I have a student that is non verbal and autistic. He is in my 2D Studio art class. It is hard to communicate with him and understand all of his gestures. Be he does make noises when he is happy or made, and reading his expressions has helped me connect. He can write and draw which also helps me understand where he is. I connected with the ESE coordinator I was able to find ways to alter his lessons and have him make art. Most of the project he has been able to complete in his own way and definitely understands what I am saying. When I did a whole class demo on print making, he watched. Once the class was set up, a one-on-one aid and I did a hands on demo with him and he was able to make a print from his homemade print plate. He really enjoyed and and you could see the excitement on his face. It was so rewarding to have him in class and help him enjoy art and making.

- Describe at least one way you have used technology to meet the needs of a student with a disability in your classroom. Be sure to describe the specific technology and how it assisted the student with a disability.
I have a few students who are ESE. I use a document camera to visually demonstrate to the whole class how an art process works so everyone can see it on the board instead of having students gather around a table where some may not be able to see it. While doing the demonstration, I also record it through the document camera and then post it into google classroom so my students can go back and watch it at their own pace. This also allows them to watch it as many times as needed to master the task. |
