Session 5: Visual Supports – An Eye on Visuals

Visual supports are critical in meeting the social-emotional, behavioral, and learning needs of students including those with autism, ID, as well as learning and executive functioning disabilities. 

This session will examine evidence-based visual strategies and how they can be implemented in any learning setting. The use of schedules, token economies, social narratives, graphic organizers, and more will be demonstrated and participants will learn where to find ready made materials and resources to generate customized visual supports. 

What you can expect from the session:

• Learn how to integrate visual supports when designing curriculum and therapy materials for any educational environment, highlighting best practices for students with and without disabilities, that provides for the active, inclusive and meaningful participation of ALL learners.
