Body
In the 2019-2020 academic year, the 115 California Community Colleges were initiating and implementing practices designed to improve student outcomes (e.g., focused on increasing the number of students who earn a degree, credential, certificate, or transfer to four-year institutions or attain employment, in high demand jobs).
In the advent of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, it will be important for the colleges to engage with students with an intellectual disability (ID) and students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as soon as possible in the new online environment. This webinar was designed to respond to emerging needs to support students in the wake of the Coronavirus. It features presentations by Maria Paiewonsky, Ed.D. and Jane Thierfeld-Brown, Ed.D. Dr. Paiewonsky provided strategies for supporting students with ID, and Dr. Theirfeld-Brown provided strategies for supporting students with ASD.
