Description

One of the current trends in education is the move toward inclusion of students with disabilities. This presentation explores innovative ways to develop reciprocal, dynamic interactions between neuroscience and classroom practice to enhance teacher preparation programs and professional development for teachers. When educators are prepared to teach in inclusive classrooms, students with disabilities will have more access, more ways to participate, and more ways to demonstrate learning.
