The eight-page guide explores ideas and strategies to transform current learning environments into inclusive spaces that recognize and celebrate neurodiversity.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Aug. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- While there are neurodiverse students in every school in the country, many learning environments are not designed to address their unique gifts and needs. To help schools support neurodiverse learners and enrich the learning experience of all students, MiEN Company has published a new white paper, "Redesigning Learning Spaces for Neurodiverse Learners."
The eight-page guide explores ideas and strategies to transform current learning environments into inclusive spaces that recognize and celebrate neurodiversity. The paper, which is authored by Special Needs Consultant Cecilia Cruse, MS, OTR/L, discusses neurodiversity and examines new research as well as existing challenges for neurodiverse students. It explores current teaching practices and frameworks such as Universal Design for Learning (UDL). It also offers many practical ways that schools can support neurodiverse students and prioritize inclusive strategies and practices.
"Some brains function differently than 'neurotypical' brains, and some students may require different supports," said VP of Education and Marketing, Dr. Christina Counts. "With this white paper, educators and school support staff can gain new insights into neurodiversity, reimagine their instructional practices, and create classrooms and learning spaces where all learners can thrive."
