Instructional Strategies & Resources That Optimize Learning
              For Students With Special Needs
 Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 &
 Individual With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)

   Section 504 is a federal law, and The Individual with
    Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is a statute; both are
    designed to optimize learning for students with
    disabilities.

   They state that students with disabilities must receive
    Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in the Least
    Restrictive Environment (LRE) possible.
 Students who have special needs or students who fit
 the definition of a child with a disability based on
 Individual With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)’s
 definition should be provided the same optimal
 educational instruction opportunity as general
 classroom students, and if possible, these students
 should be included in the general classroom.
 The Individualized Education Plan is an
 individualized plan designed to optimize learning for
 students with disabilities.
   These specialized plans are uniquely created for each
    student.
 The Technology-Related Assistance of Individuals with
 Disabilities Act of 1988 defines Assistive Technology
 (AT) as
    “any item, piece of equipment, or product system,
    whether acquired commercially or off the shelf,
    modified, or customized, that is used to increase,
    maintain, or improve functional capabilities of
    individuals with disabilities.”
 Student Strengths/Weakness and Interest
 Assessments
   At the beginning of the year (and maybe even
    throughout the year) teachers may pass around a survey
    asking students questions about their interest,
    strengths, and weaknesses. The end result is a possible
    more intimate understanding of your students’ likes and
    dislikes, strengths and weakness, therefore providing
    instruction that best suits them.
 Differentiated Instruction & Assessments
   Teachers vary instruction methods and assessments
    based on students’ individual needs by catering to
    various learning styles when teaching information, and
    by providing various options in assessing information.
   An example would be to offer students a variety of ways
    to report information, such as typing the information,
    creating a video, use of presentation software, or
    creating a song of some type to display information
    learned.
