Research has demonstrated that video modeling is effective in teaching specific social, play, and functional skills to students with autism and other cognitive disabilities. During this hour we will take a look at what video modeling is, highlight some video modeling tools that are currently available, and discuss applications of these tools in various instructional settings.
Teaching with technology isn't limited to graphing calculators. This session will focus on using free, Web-based tools (e.g., virtual manipulatives, Google docs, and wiki pages) to help students develop mathematical proficiency while exploring the CCSS domain progressions of number and operations—fractions (3–5) and the number system (6–8).
