Embracing Neurodiversity in the Classroom
Thursday, March 20 , 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm CDT
Neurodiversity recognizes the natural variation in human brains and neurological traits. Neurodiversity focuses on the strengths of individuals and the support they may need to thrive. Neurodivergent students may include those diagnosed with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other conditions, as well as those who may not have formal diagnoses.
Join us for an engaging workshop dedicated to fostering a culture of inclusion and deeper understanding of neurodiversity among students. Explore the value of diverse minds and learn how to create supportive and inclusive classroom environments for all students. Registration is Required.
