New resources have been launched on The Outreach Center for Deafness and Blindness at OCALI on the Learning Hub to support instruction and access for learners with low incidence disabilities. The module series Unlocking the Foundations of Reading for Learners who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing is intended to bring reading research to the classroom in a format that is easy for educators to access. Modules 1-3 are available now, with more modules in the series on the way.
Even with high quality instruction, students can’t learn what they can’t access. To support providers in ensuring access for learners who are deaf/hard of hearing, The Outreach Center teamed up with Montgomery County ESC to walk through the Functional Listening Evaluation in an on-demand module with step-by-step instructions, video-based demonstrations, and case studies to apply your learning. If you have any questions on available resources or support for educators, please contact us at [email protected].
