Posted by Shirley Lawson on the 3rd May, 2022

Delivering our Professional Learning online has allowed us to reach a far greater number of people and have a wider geographical audience. We have been delighted to share our expertise with teachers, Pupil Support Assistants, Support for Learning staff, parents, students and external professionals involved with pupils with Additional Support Needs.

Only two more workshops on offer this term and both offer great opportunities for you to learn new skills using technology to support your learners.

On Thursday 12^th May, Craig and Claire will lead an online workshop on Using Powerpoint Creatively to support learners with ASN.  You will learn how to create fun, educational, interactive activities which will be engaging and motivating.  Still some spaces available so sign up today!

The last workshop of the term will be on Thursday 26^th May, Craig and I will show you all the built-in accessibility features of the iPad and demonstrate how they can increase the independence of learners with literacy difficulties, visual impairment or physical challenges.  This is your chance to be shown how all the features work and to be given ideas of using them in context with your learners.  For more information and to sign up for this workshop, go to the iPad Accessibility tools page in our Training section of the website.
