In this crazy year, most educators have had to flip their classrooms from in-person instruction to remote instruction. It has truly been a year of learning for teachers, parents, and students alike! In this FREE webinar, we will discuss the impact the learning styles of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has on accessing and engaging in remote instruction. We will identify Structured TEACCHing strategies and supports to increase engagement and independence in remote learning activities. Such strategies include organizing the home learning environment, visual supports, and meaningful routines. In addition to Structured TEACCHing supports, we will discuss the importance of clear communication between the educators and caregivers so roles/responsibilities are clearly identified. Zoom Webinar will be on Dec. 15, 2020 at 12:00 PM (ET) Registration is required. https://tinyurl.com/yxw3gcyo
