Dear Michael,
Charter schools offer diverse learning opportunities and instructional approaches, but as in mainstream schools, all students must have access to special education services, including speech/language therapy. Although a growing number of charter schools are using inexpensive technology to enable special education services remotely, there are still many questions about when (and when not) to rely on online speech-language therapy. Make plans to join a nationwide audience of charter school leaders for a one-hour webinar with a panel of special education experts who understand the challenges of delivering quality services remotely.
This webinar will feature:
- An overview of the benefits and limitations of online speech therapy based on real-world examples with charter school students.
- Insights into the roles and responsibilites of the special education administrator, the SLP, charter school teachers and staff related to online speech therapy.
- A synopsis of the body of research related to the effectiveness of online speech therapy.
