CEC Webinars | Introducing the Updated High-Leverage Practices for Students with Disabilities
Join the editors of High-Leverage Practices for Students with Disabilities (2nd Edition) for either of two free webinars! High-Leverage Practices for Students with Disabilities (2nd Edition) have recently been revised and updated to reflect the challenges of modern classrooms. A core addition is the interpretation and analysis of how the HLPs work together (as compared to individual, standalone practices), and alongside evidence-based practices to improve teacher practice and student outcomes. Learn more about pillar, embedded, and culturally informed practices as well as discover real examples of the HLPs in practice.
These webinars are free for everyone!
