    15. LILIE ONLINE: Maximizing Strengths and Abilities Supportive Approach for Students with Learning Diversity

    Program: Model Schools

    Dates: 12/1/2024 to 12/28/2024

    "Learning diversity” recognizes that individuals with learning disabilities have unique strengths and abilities, and emphasizes the importance of building on these assets in order to support their learning and development. The concept of learning diversity acknowledges that there is diversity within the ways that individuals learn, and that this diversity should be valued and supported rather than viewed as a deficit emphasizing the importance of creating inclusive and supportive learning environments that recognize and accommodate the needs of all learners, including those with learning disabilities. By using an asset-based approach and framing learning disabilities as learning diversity, educators can shift their focus from deficits to strengths, and work to create inclusive and supportive learning environments that empower all students to succeed. Focus will be on strategies for helping students with learning diversities succeed in the classroom with techniques for differentiating instruction, adapting materials and assessments, and using assistive technology. There will be continual exploration in which culture can impact learning and considering the unique needs and experiences of students from diverse backgrounds. The goal of this course is to provide educators with the knowledge, skills, and strategies they need to support and empower students with learning diversities to reach their full potential.

    Book Creator is a versatile digital tool that revolutionizes how students create, share, and engage with content across multiple learning environments. This workshop explores the powerful ways ELL educators can integrate Book Creator into classroom instruction, supporting diverse learning needs and fostering creativity. In the classroom, Book Creator transforms traditional learning by offering flexible collaboration options. Students can work individually or in groups, creating dynamic multimedia books that showcase their understanding and creativity. The platform's innovative features, including talk-to-text capabilities and video integration (like flipgrid), provide multiple modes of expression for students with different learning styles. Built-in translation tools break down language barriers, making the platform especially valuable for multilingual classrooms and supporting SIFE (Students with Interrupted Formal Education) students. Beyond the classroom, Book Creator becomes a powerful at-home learning resource. Students can explore creative projects like personalized ABC books, develop early literacy skills, and continue their learning journey outside school walls. The tool's user-friendly interface allows students to create independently, supporting self-directed learning and extending educational experiences beyond traditional classroom boundaries. This workshop will demonstrate how Book Creator can transform learning, support diverse student needs, and make education more engaging and accessible. Participants will learn practical strategies for implementing Book Creator in various educational settings, from classroom instruction to at-home learning support.
