SUMMARY:Using the VB-MAPP Assessment & Instructional Programming to Build Language
DESCRIPTION:The Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP) is one option to consider for assessment and program guidance when supporting elementary age students with autism and other individuals who demonstrate language delays. The VB-MAPP is a criterion-referenced assessment\, curriculum guide and skills tracking system. It combines principles of ABA and Skinner’s analysis of verbal behavior to provide a behaviorally based language assessment program for all children with language delays. \nParticipants will learn how to administer the assessment\, interpret results\, and design instructional programming. \nFollow up support in the district is available to teams to ensure effective practices are in place and address individual student programming needs.

SUMMARY:Supporting Student Attendance A Multi-Tiered Approach
DESCRIPTION:Reducing chronic absenteeism is a growing challenge for schools. This session will give an overview of the root causes of absenteeism and how to address those causes through a multi-tiered approach. Topics in this session will include the following: how to analyze attendance data\, identifying barriers to regular attendance\, evidence-based interventions\, and supporting students who are chronically absent. By the end of the session\, participants will have some strategies that can be implemented schoolwide\, with small groups\, and with individual students.

SUMMARY:AT Making - Solder\, Switches & Stuffing
DESCRIPTION:  \nFree transformED Educator Workshop\nDiscover AT-making skills for creating accessible technology solutions by learning soldering and other useful techniques.\nAre you looking for projects that your school’s STEAM program or club can use to develop and hone basic making skills? Are you curious about additional\, real-life applications for the tools and skills your students are learning? Are you wondering how you can hack toys to make them more accessible to children with physical disabilities? \nThis hands-on workshop will introduce participants to assistive technology (AT) making skills to create usable access products. Participants will learn basic soldering to join wire segments and assemble mono and stereo components for use in a variety of assistive technology applications. Those skills – along with some 3D-printed parts – will be applied to create a mechanical switch that could be used by an individual with physical disabilities. Each participant will also make a battery interrupter and switch-adapt a stuffed\, electronic toy that can be used with the scratch-built switch. \nSkill Level: Beginner (no previous knowledge expected or needed) \nWhat to Bring | All materials will be provided for this workshop. Participants are encouraged to bring a reusable shopping bag to carry completed projects home at the end of the day. \nWho Should Attend | STEAM teachers and other educators who would like to learn valuable “making” skills in ways that can increase accessibility for others \nLunch will be provided. \nRegister on Eventbrite\n\nLearn more about transformED\n
