Hi All,

I have a second year SPED teacher who has become passionate about tech integration in the SPED environment and is looking for a group or network to follow or join. Specifically, she is looking for groups/networks that share tips, tricks, best practices, resources, etc. for topics such as: accessibility & accommodations, IEP goals/objectives, implementation, data tracking, and progress monitoring. I know her district uses SpEd Forms.

If you have any recommendations for her, I'd be happy to pass them along.

Thanks,
Jeremy

I think this is a fabulous idea! Perhaps we can start a FB group or Google Group and add interested individuals? As a tech integrationist, I have collected a ton of sped tech and EL tech resources that I could add to the discussion but I would love to learn from others too!

I think a Google Group might be the best option. I know a lot of people don't use facebook anymore or don't want to use a personal account for work things. Who should host it? Should we ask someone from Sourcewell or just have a district create it?

I think it makes sense to have Sourcewell host it. The SpEd tech person in my district is very interested in joining.
