Assessing Math Writing and Implementing Interactive Reading for Diverse Learners

Explores strategies for supporting students with diverse learning needs. We examine math-writing assessments for students with math difficulty, highlighting key design factors, and introduce interactive reading supported by assistive technology for learners with extensive support needs. Participants gain practical tools to foster access, communication, and meaningful engagement across content areas.Participants will be able to: 1. Apply key factors in designing effective math-writing assessments for students with math difficulty. 2. Design interactive reading lessons using assistive technologies and embedded supports for learners with extensive needs. 3. Implement strategies to foster engagement, communication, and comprehension across math and literacy activities.
