Supporting
Students Who Learn Differently
For
students who learn differently,
including those whose needs rise to the level of receiving special education
services, the pandemic has brought additional and varied challenges that many
of their peers don't experience. Parents of students who have an Individualized
Educational Program (or other additional education support) say they are twice
as likely as their peers to be doing little or no remote
learning and are at risk of falling behind on important life skills
as well as academics. How must teaching and leading change to
connect with students in a COVID-19 world? In partnership with Understood, this issue
explores ideas for making classrooms—in person and remote—more accommodating to
all students.
