Effective Practices for Students with Significant Cognitive Disabilities
Designing and Supporting Instruction




Students with significant cognitive disabilities have needs that vary greatly from a traditional classroom in instruction, assessments, schedules, and classroom arrangement because of the emphasis on customizing learning for each individual.  

This course highlights best practices to facilitate learning for students with the most complex needs using the Texas SPED Support Rubric of Effective Practices.  Attendees will engage in reflection of their current practices and plan for program growth.  The rubric also has an administrator companion guide connecting to T-TESS dimensions which provides "look -fors" when evaluating teachers of students with complex needs.


Important Session Information:


When providing differentiated instruction, there are many factors to consider.  When developing lesson plans, educators want to design effective instruction to meet a wide range of unique learners.  Lessons that engage all students, and encourage them to be active participants in their learning is the goal.

This session will provide a deeper dive into educational philosophy, students with diverse learning needs, and differentiation which are all connected to lesson design.
