Incorporating Low-Tech and Easy Videos in your Professional Development

You will have the opportunity to create your own video that you can use in your professional development. It is important to note that these outcomes do not include instructions on how to develop video but rather how video can be used. Due to the variation in the resources you have available (smartphone, video camera, webcam, etc.) and the pace at which technology changes, we will instead be providing resources to help you understand how you can use video and how you can create your own videos.

Description:

In this session, learners will use low-tech and free options to create and share pictures with audio to enhance professional development. Participants will apply what they learn to create their own picture with audio.

Digital media and content have come a long way. Tools and services are available now to make you (yes you!) the creator of digital content, to meet the needs of the consumer you are providing professional development services to.

In this course, you will explore one exciting type of media – photos with audio. These photos can be used similar to how you might use a video, only they are short (less than 90 seconds). Photos can be shared in a face to face setting, or online.

Select appropriate pictures for sharing with other professionals
Understand the concept of using audio with photos
Create and share your own ideas via photos and audio

SPLASH 101: Scheduling for K-12 Students with Moderate to Severe Disabilities (MSD) – How can I get all of this done?

Scheduling for students with significant intellectual disabilities can be a daunting task especially since we often don’t have control over changes to the master schedule. This is compounded in most cases by teachers serving multiple grade and ability levels. It is very important to “hit the ground” running with a well-planned schedule at the beginning of each year so that bad habits aren’t formed and routines are clearly established for students and adults.

Course Funding: SPLASH is an initiative of the Kentucky Department of Education’s State Personnel Development Grant (SPDG) funded by the Office of Special Education Programs and managed by the University of Louisville.

SPLASH activities are grounded in research-based practices to increase teacher skill-sets and administrator understanding of indicators of high-quality teaching and learning for students with moderate/severe disabilities (MSD). SPLASH is a program focusing on supporting low incidence teachers across the Commonwealth of Kentucky and bringing rigorous academic instruction for all students.
