SUMMARY:Better Teaching Through Neurodiversity: Supporting Students’ Executive Functioning
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to apply the Universal Design for Learning framework to develop inclusive teaching practices that support executive functioning for all learners in this one-part workshop. Many times\, instructors fear that designing a neuroinclusive classroom is too difficult and may even come at the expense of some of their other students’ needs. In fact\, the opposite is often true: if we take the time to look carefully at their needs and reflect on our own teaching practices\, accommodating students with autism\, ADHD\, and other neurodivergent conditions can actually improve outcomes for every student. Through case study exploration and brainstorming around specific teaching materials\, participants will work with peers to add to their toolbox for neuroinclusive teaching. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify the principles of the neurodiversity paradigm and its application in learning\nExplain executive functioning and its relationship to neurodiversity\nExamine and resolve executive functioning pressure points in classroom situations\nRevise teaching practices to reflect executive functioning best practices\n\nInstructors\nTeresa Hooper\, University of Tennessee\, Knoxville\nRobert Jacobsen\, University of Tennessee\, Knoxville \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets on Wednesday\, March 12 at 10pm-12am Gulf / 3-5pm Atlantic / 2-4pm Eastern / 1-3pm Central / 12-2pm Mountain / 11am-1pm Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed for participants who either have some previous teaching/teaching development experience or are in the process of developing an upcoming course. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nREGISTER NOW \nThis workshop has no cap. Registration opens on Monday\, February 24. \nAccessibility\nIf you have access needs\, please let us know what they are. Contact Zoe Zuleger (zmzuleger@wisc.edu)\, who is supporting this workshop\, to let us know how we can help you have a successful experience. In addition to meeting individualized needs\, we will also take measures throughout the workshop to support accessibility for all our students: \n\nSending pre-session reminders with upcoming assignments to all students\nSharing materials for synchronous sessions with students (slides\, activity instructions\, etc.)\nEnabling live captioning in synchronous sessions\nIncorporating multiple modes of interaction into synchronous sessions\n\n\nLearning Outcomes\nAll CIRTL Network programming is designed to help participants achieve familiarity with our Core Ideas. This workshop is designed around the following learning outcomes. \nAssociate: Evidence-based teaching\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of realistic well-defined\, achievable\, measurable and student-centered learning goals.\nDescribe several known high-impact\, evidence-based effective instructional practices and materials and recognize their alignment with particular types of learning goals.\n\nAssociate: Learning through diversity\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of drawing on diversity in the development of teaching plans (including content\, teaching practices and assessments) to foster learning.\nDescribe the impact of diversity on student learning\, in particular how diversity can enhance learning\, and how inequities can negatively impact learning if not addressed.\nDescribe the scope of diversity in learning environments\, of both students and instructor.
