When planning for the instructional needs of individuals with various disabilities, we must recognize our responsibility as the "avenue to the experience" in making the learning/teaching criterion meaningful.  This presentation will provide strategies to assist in the development, selection, and implementation of various intervention techniques, as well as "frameworks" to help determine chronological, age appropriate activities, that are purposeful and learner specific.

Presenter:

Ms. Jo Mascorro, M.Ed. is an independent consultant who provides training throughout the nation in areas specific to behavior intervention practices, communication strategies, parenting skills and programming for students who experience severe/profound disabilities (birth-adult).  Ms. Mascorro has over 34 years of experience in the field of Education and received both her Bachelor and Master's degrees from Texas Tech University.  She is a native Texan and resides in San Antonio.
