Internship Reflections: TF 111.B



Use technology to support learner-centered strategies that address the diverse needs of students.
Use flip cameras to help create videos for special education student behavior lessons.  


Our school has a class for students who work on the Autism spectrum. The students need to see appropriate behaviors and how to behave during specific events. During a computer lab class on April 7, 2011, the special education teacher in charge of several of the students with Autism came and we recorded a student showing correct behaviors in the lab. The teacher then was able to use the video to show the students who needed this assistance what proper computer lab behavior “looks like.” We also create videos for drills such as fire, bad weather, and lock downs. We have created videos for what is termed “social skills.” The videos have helped the students to “see” the correct behaviors expected of them.
