  1. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti COTTAS Fermo 6 – 10 October, 2013 Protocol and Legislation regarding Students with Special Needs Paola Ammazzalorso ComeniusCottasProject Coordinator-Italy

  2. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS Have the right toaneducation

  3. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS • DisabledStudents • StudentswithSpecificLearningDisabilites • Socio-economically, linguistically, culturallydisadvantagedstudents

  4. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti STUDENTS WITH SPECIFIC LEARNING DISABILITIES • Dyslexia • Dysgraphia • Mathdisabilities

  5. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti SOCIO-ECONOMICALLY, LINGUISTICALLY, CULTURALLY DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS • “Anystudent can experiencespecial educational needs, continually or temporarily”

  6. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti WHO ARE THE PARTIES INVOLVED? • SCHOOL: Headmaster, classteachers, specialneedscontactperson • FAMILY • STUDENT • PSYCHOLOGIST (sometimes)

  7. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti Allparties work togethertodraw up anindividualized/personalizedplanwhich best fitsstudent’s needs and meetperiodicallytoevaluateitseffectiveness and modifyitwhenneeded.

  8. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti UPPER SECONDARY SCHOOL Secondaryschoolrequiresstudentstohave full masteryofinstrumentalcompetences (reading, writing, calculating), aneffectivestudymethod and adequateprerequisitesforlearning more and more complexknowledge. Thesethings can bedifficultforstudentswithspecialneeds and leadtodemotivation. Thesedifficulties can belimited and overcomeif the appropriate strategies and compensatorytools and dispensatorymeasures are adopted.

  9. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti WHAT ARE WE DOING? • Individualized/Personalizedprograms • CompensatoryTools • DispensatoryMeasures • Adequateformsofevaluation and testing

  10. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti INDIVIDUALIZED/PERSONALIZED PROGRAMS • Flexibleformsofschool work which take intoconsiderationparticularcharacteristicsof the student, byadoptingadequate educational methodology and strategies

  11. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti COMPENSATORY TOOLS • Substitute or facilitate requested task in the abilitywhichislacking • Voice synthesis • Recordings • Word Processing Programs • Calculator • Tables, Formularies, ConceptMaps

  12. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti READING DISORDERS Dyslexia • Promoteabilitytocomprehendtexts • Studentsshould: - Readsilently - Readforgist, key words

  13. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti DYSLEXIA Compensatorytools • Transformreading task intolistening task • Have a personread test items, homeworkassignments, multiple choicequestions • Usedigitalbooks and dictionaries • Presentnew material orally • Simplifytexts • Useconceptmaps,diagrams and otherdidacticmediators

  14. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti DYSLEXIA DispensatoryMeasures: Studentisexemptedfrom: • Reading out loud in class • Readingpassageslongerthanhis/herlevel can handle • Allactivities in whichreading performance isevaluated.

  15. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti DISORDER OF WRITTEN EXPRESSION Compensatorytools: • Doublereadingofwritten text: first tocorrect spelling mistakes, secondtocorrectsyntactic and overallorganizationalaspects. So, studentneeds more timeto complete writing task. • Usemaps or diagrams • Computer withautomatic spelling and voice synthesisforproof-reading • Recorderfortaking notes

  16. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti MATH DISABILITIES • Manage part ofactionsindividually • Help studentsovercomehelplessnessbyguidinghim/hertowardesperiencingowncompetence • Individualerroranalysis • Strengthen cognitive processes

  17. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti MATH DISABILITIES • Compensatorytools, dispensatorymeasures Useofcalculator, pythagoreantable, personal formulary are supporttools. Theyeaseload on studentbut don’t improvecompetence.

  18. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti FOREIGN LANGUAGES • More importancetooralskillsoverwrittenskills • Studentsshouldbegiventexts a fewdaysbeforelesson so they can decodethem at home and then work on text comprehension at school. • Writing: more importancetoeffectivenessofcommunication

  19. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti FOREIGN LANGUAGES Compensatorytools • Audio books • Voice synthesis • Computerswithautomatic spelling corrector • Digitaldictionaries

  20. Liceo Scientifico T.C. Onesti FOREIGN LANGUAGES Dispensatorymeasures • Extra time • Adequatelyreduced work load • Seriousdisorder: student can beexemptedfromtakingwritten test
