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 identify or describe the specific technology and the student's disability. Share your response in the threaded discussion
One way that I use technology to meet the needs of students with a disability in my classroom is by making step by step instructions on my canvas course and then using the overhead projector to show/display each step to my students while teaching it to them. I then leave these up while they are working on their work as I walk around further assisting anyone who needs further help. I find that this helps with many disabilities like language impairments, hearing impairments,developmentally delayed, emotional/behavioral disabilities, homebound/hospitalized, intellectual disabilities, other health impaired, as well as students who have specific learning disabilities. |

Think of a student with a disability you have now, or have had in the past. Identify their disability. Describe the way in which their disability affected their learning. Describe at least one or more ways you successfully accommodated or modified instruction for this student. Share your response in the threaded discussion.
I have some students that have some emotional/behavioral disorders and when it comes to art it stresses them out cause they feel that they cannot do it or it is too difficult and they tend to shut down or act out instead of try to do the work. With these students I give the students directions in short bursts with lots of visual examples as well as one on one guidance. I feel the one on one guidance helps the most I. Boosting their confidante as well as excitement to want to do the work cause they feel in co trip and capable which motivates them like and want to want to do their work. |

Provide/Describe one or more examples of adapted or alternative assessments you have successfully used in the classroom for students with disabilities. Be sure to identify the student's disability. Share your response in the threaded discussion.
In my classroom I assess both mainstream students and students with disabilities both the same. I create a rubric which is based off of the given guidelines and directions for the assignment/project. I generally review with each class at the beginning of each class and go over what was taught or expected and then answer any questions regarding it. I also walk around the room monitoring and assisting anyone who needs any further or additional help with it. once the work is completed, I then collect it and assess it based off of the rubric in which was created for assessing it. |
