M5 Blog Post 4: Annotated Bibliography (Technology in SPED)
As I teach a very niche population of students with moderate to severe developmental disabilities, when reflecting upon what I have learned this semester I wanted to lean more into how new media, literacies and technologies apply directly to my students’ needs for practical application in my own classroom. I would like to ensure that I am not stagnant and am using the most up-to-date and relevant approaches and resources, as I have seen these things be truly transformative for many of my students throughout my career.
