SMART Launches New Inclusion Solution and Global Research to Support Neurodiverse Learners
Summary
Traditional classroom settings often fail to accommodate the unique needs of neurodiverse students, contributing to significant gaps in academic achievement and social inclusion. The study, currently underway, seeks to demonstrate that technology that champions UDL principles, can help to eliminate barriers for neurodivergent students. These tools collectively enable students to engage and participate in learning activities without relying solely on spoken or written language. SMART will showcase the Inclusive Classroom Bundle at ISTE 2024, inviting educators, administrators, and technology enthusiasts to experience firsthand how these tools can transform the learning environment. The two lead researchers from the University of Melbourne, Dr. Matt Harrison and Jess Rowlings, are joining SMART at ISTE for an in-booth session on Monday, June 24th at 2:00 pm.
