Description
This is an opportunity for Washington state AT providers and educational team members to come together in an informal on-line gathering to discuss current AT Topics. The topic for this webinar is “AT for Executive Functioning to Support Educators”. This is a follow up to our Sept 29, 2021 Fall Conference session on AT and Executive Functioning (EF) and will focus on how we can use EF strategies to support our own work as educators. We will have a facilitator who will start the webinar, provide questions, and facilitate the participant discussion. Questions will be sent out to registered participants prior to the scheduled AT chatter time.
Learning Objectives:
- Discuss AT tools to support executive functioning for educators in our unique instructional and support roles.
