Abstract
This workshop focuses on highlighting the strengths of students with disabilities. The neurodiversity movement encourages us to consider the gifts of conditions we have previously labeled as “disabilities”. in this workshop teachers will learn how to shift student perspective from what they can’t do to what they can. Topics covered include post-secondary goals, student self-concept and effective partnering with parents. In this presentation, I will describe the development of my research question and report on some of my research findings from three years of data collected at my suburban American High School. Participants will engage with current research and apply concrete strategies to improve their teaching practice.
