In a few days I am going to some present to some special education teachers. I make no bones about the fact that I am a regular education teacher, but I share the room with one and have taught many of them in my technology integration course. So I did a lot of research and thought about what the special education teachers I know like and came up with this document of items that I am going to go over in the 90 minutes (yes I won't get to it all!). If you teach in a special education classroom, I'd appreciate some comments or e-mails ([email protected]) with your suggestions.
