Facilitator’s Guide: High Leverage Practices for Students with Disabilities
Modes of Learning
This session and materials can be used in either a synchronous or asynchronous, self-directed learning training. There are a couple different options for delivery:
Synchronous:
- Use the main slide deck or webpage with the self-assessment tool, final activity, and the CEEDAR Brief. If using slide deck, remove videos so facilitator can guide participants through the brief.
Asynchronous
- Use the main slide deck or webpage with embedded videos, self-assessment, final activity, and CEEDAR Brief; allow participants to navigate through the slide deck themselves.
- Modify the main slide deck by removing the videos and post individual links to each video separately in the LMS housing all the materials.
