10.19 Diverse Learner Resource Roundup
We are past the midpoint of this semester. Many of you, I know, are preparing for new modes of teaching (some in-person) in this second quarter. Please let me know if there is a specific resource or support you need in doing so - or find a resource that I should share. I appreciate all of your emails in reply to these resource roundups each week, thank you!
VISION: By December 2020, we can confidently say that our diverse learners have equitable access to high quality educational opportunities that inspire progress toward their individualized goals across learning environments.
As always, use what you need, when you need it. Comment below with how you are using these resources in your own practice.

If you haven’t seen this one, it’s a doozy - but it’s organized by disability category which makes it easy to find what you need. This guide for supporting students with disabilities provides some unique insights into a variety of learner profiles if you need some new ideas!
