  1. Standards-Based Instruction for ALL Students Changing Perspectives, Changing Practices, Brighter Future

  2. Our Focus for this Class: The 1% Population 88%

  3. Topics for the Week

  4. Changing Perspectives, Changing Practices

  5. Some Thoughts About Change • Changing practice takes effort • Change is uneven • Lessons from implementation science - teachers must believe that the change will be positive

  6. Implementation Science: Readiness for Change “Readiness is an under-emphasized part of the implementation process. Proceeding with implementation prematurely can lead to both ineffective and expensive implementation efforts” (Fixsen et al., 2009, pg. 1). Source: Fixsen, Blase, Horner & Sugai, 2009.

  7. Managing Complex Change

  8. Changing Curricular PracticesChanging Options for the Future Supportive care in sheltered settings – clustered placements Community-based programs – sheltered and non-sheltered settings – clustered placement Models in which ongoing support needs do not limit options; individual models College and career readiness – new post-secondary options; customized employment

  9. An evolving legislative history provides impetus for this shift in thinking.

  17. What Does ‘College and Career Ready’ Mean for Students with Significant Cognitive Disabilities”? • Communicative competence should be addressed as a foundational priority, and as the basis of everything else. • Fluency in reading, writing, and math are necessary for lifelong learning, community involvement, and success in the workplace. • Age appropriate social skills and the ability to work effectively with others are essential for future educational and career pursuits. • Independent work behaviors, as well as the ability to recognize the need for and request assistance as needed, are critical for lifelong learning and on-the-job success. • Skills in accessing support systems are essential for long-term success, in that individuals with the most significant cognitive disabilities will continue to need coordinated supports to achieve their highest potential (pp. 24-25) Kearns, Kleinert, Harrison, Sheppard-Jones, Hall, and Jones (2010)
