Overview
In this webinar, we discussed:
How AI technology can be leveraged to support special education practices. The key points covered include:
- Applying Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles with AI by:
- Generating content in different modalities (images, tables, audio, diagrams, text)
- Providing various options for students to demonstrate understanding
- Customizing assignments and content based on individual learning profiles
- Differentiating instruction with AI through:
- Adapting existing materials to meet diverse learning needs
- Creating multiple versions of activities and assessments
- Brainstorming unique assignments tailored to specific student groups
- Accelerating the differentiation process to save time and foster creativity
- Empowering students to use AI for self-directed learning:
- Engaging with materials in different ways based on individual learning preferences
- Seeking explanations and advice tailored to specific learning needs (e.g., dyslexia, ADHD)
- Practicing self-paced learning with responsive quizzing and guided problem-solving
- Streamlining administrative tasks with AI, such as:
- Drafting reports, requests, paperwork, spreadsheets, and record-keeping
- Composing emails with appropriate tone and formatting
- Generating IEP-related content, including goals, objectives, and data tracking
- Assisting with parent communication, newsletters, and permission slips
- Showcasing Pedagogy Cloud’s AI-powered toolkit for special education, featuring:
- Curriculum and lesson development tools (e.g., reading level adjuster, Bloom’s Taxonomy scaffolder)
- Administrative helpers (e.g., email response helper, IEP objective assistant)
The webinar highlights the potential of AI to support special education teachers in creating accessible, differentiated learning experiences, while also empowering students to take ownership of their learning journey. By leveraging AI tools, educators can save time, foster creativity, and better meet the diverse needs of their students.
