Problem of Practice: Can technology improve academic success in literacy for special needs students? (writing skills focus)
District: North Shore
School: Glenwood Landing Elementary
Facilitator: Tom Troisi
Principal: Bridget Finder
Teachers: Kathleen Grassi
This action research involves using technology to improve writing skills for special needs students. I would like to focus on not only improving students' academic success, but also their motivation, participation, and confidence in literacy. I hope to improve their writing skills, as well as make texts more accessible to students through the use of technology.
