Symposium -Mario Armstrong

Clone Thyself and Gain Back Precious Time!

 

A look at practical, technical solutions through software, hardware, gadgets and systems that can increase your personal productivity and allow you to gain back time to make your day more effective and efficient. This interactive, informative and entertaining discussion will help you identify specific technology solutions that can assist your efforts for successful management and make you aware of various tools that other educational leaders are having success implementing.

 

Symposium -Pene Chambers

Wow, Technology Changes Fast. Are You Aware, Ready and Safe?

 

 Do we need to go where "young people go"?  Do we have safe schools, safe children and controlled access without eliminating very good new resources? Are BLOGS, podcasts, social networks, etc. educational? What about webcams? Are they safe? How do you monitor student computer and Internet use? Do you? Do you have an Acceptable Use Policy or school policies that were written with new technology in mind? Is staff on the same page with students regarding what is allowed in the school setting?

 

General Session - Dr. David Capuzzi

The Many Facets of Grief: Proactive

Approaches for Coping with Loss

 

 Loss and transition are two of life’s “constants”. No one can expect to live a life that is free of challenges, disappointments, or change. Yet, it seems that society does a better job of preparing us to cope with the festivities that accompany a birth, a marriage, a job promotion, or attainment of a life long dream. We are better at knowing what to do and say when others experience positive events. But how do we provide support to those who experience a life that includes a disability that may preclude experiencing a number of the life events enjoyed by neighbors, friends, and family members? This session will provide participants with information that is pertinent to working with individuals with disabilities who are adjusting to transitions and losses. Topics such as the stages of grief and loss, the four tasks of mourning, the difference between normal and dysfunctional responses to transitions and loss, blocks to successful grieving, helpful responses to those who are grieving, signs of recovery and guidelines for providing training, in this regard, to caregivers and family members, will be presented in a varied, and sometimes experiential, format.

 

A1 - Dr. Paul Livelli

Partnering with the University for

Staff Recruitment and Development

Special education schools continue to suffer from staff shortages; this shortage especially rings true in the non-public world.  Tapping into local resources can provide some answers to the question of how to recruit great teachers to your school and how to train and assist your current staff in obtaining full certification.  Most local university teaching programs place students in professional development schools for internships during a student's final year.  As such, creating a partnership with a local university can greatly enhance your staff recruitment opportunities.  The development of a partnership also provides an opportunity for aspiring teachers to work with the most challenging students in a supportive environment.  This presentation will describe a private/non-public school's attempt to recruit new teachers and ensure that existing teachers are trained and fully certified.  The session will also provide an opportunity for participants to share ideas from their own programs that have enhanced teacher recruitment and development.  

 

B1 - Mario Armstrong

Classrooms of the Future, NOW!

 

A look at technology trends, the usage of video games and other creative technologies. Focusing on strategies to help you integrate creative technology solutions in your administration and the classroom. This non-intimidating session will outline     case-study examples of using technology in the classroom, funding suggestions and specific demonstrations of valuable technologies to use in the classroom environment.
 

 

C1 - Susan Barrett

Using  School-Wide Positive Behavior Supports (SW-PBS)

to Build Sustainable Systems within Alternative School Settings

 

Successful implementation of evidenced based practices are influenced by of three key components:  Core Implementation  (i.e. training and coaching),  organizational components (i.e. evaluation and administration) and external factors (i.e. social, economic and political variables) . Learn how SW-PBS assists organizations, facilities and specialized school settings  to minimize barriers to implementation of  best practices and maximize school achievement. Features of sustainability will also be discussed.

 

D1 - Brenda Considine

Building Strategic Coalitions for Successful Advocacy Campaigns

 

Private special education schools operate in a politically complex environment, and as such, are influenced by rules, regulations and budget fluctuations at the local, state and federal level. In addition, private schools are affected by issues such as an increased emphasis on special education in the least restrictive environment (LRE); NCLB requirements; growing efforts to regionalize special education services; state education funding reform; and school choice efforts. Private special education schools need to do more than simply stay abreast of these issues and conditions, they need to influence them. In New Jersey, private special education schools have formed or become involved with diverse coalitions which have allowed them to leverage clout, combine resources, access decision-makers, and organize to influence media and public policy. This workshop will describe the work of the New Jersey Coalition for Special Education Funding Reform as a model for other states. The Coalition is comprised of ten organizations including the State's designated protection and advocacy system, the state parent training organization, several statewide disability advocacy organizations, and the state council on developmental disabilities. The coalition has a decade-long successful record of bringing together and mobilizing parent groups and advocates. New Jersey's Association of Private Special Education Schools, ASAH, plays key organizing role. Workshop attendees will learn about the power of coalitions, how to develop and expand them, and use them to advance policies that can benefit private schools. They will learn specific successful strategies for: 1) Defining the issue(s); 2) Identifying the players; 3) Developing a play; 4) Maintaining coalition unity; and 5) Communicating as a coalition.

 

 

 

General Session - Dr. Doug Fuchs

Why Special Education Must be the Most Intensive Tier in

a Standards Driven No Child Left Behind World:

Implications for Public and Private School Settings

 

Response to Intervention (RTI) is the latest major policy initiative that tries to dramatically reduce the number of children and youth with disabilities and diminish the importance of special education. An important assumption held by many supporters of RTI (as well as by full inclusionists of 2 decades ago) is that special education is expendable because general education is expandable. In this presentation, I question this assumption and suggest general education needs special education, albeit not that which passes as special education in many places. Rather, there needs to be a thorough re-thinking of what should be special about special education. I will suggest that special education (in public and private settings) must become synonymous with individualized, data-based, and recursive instruction; delivered by expert instructors; and delivered to the most difficult-to-teach children in a school, district, state, or country.

 

A2 - Dr. Doug Fuchs

What is 'Scientifically-Based' Instruction?

 Implications for Administrators and Teachers

 

I will present unpublished findings from a large, multi-site randomized control study of scaling up an empirically-validated practice. Implications for adopting best-evidence practices will be discussed.

 

B2 - Dr. David Capuzzi

Suicide and Individuals with Disabilities: Guidelines for Prevention & Crisis  Management

 

Suicide rates among individuals with disabilities are often higher than rates among those without disabilities. This session addresses the significant concerns . It includes myths connected with suicide, risk and protective factors for suicide, signs and symptoms, suicidal assessment, ethical and legal issues surrounding suicide; and counseling techniques with individuals, survivors, and their families. A varied format including experiential exercises will be used to introduce concepts and illustrate assessment, counseling, and referral techniques. Guidelines presented in this session could be used for staff development.

 

C2 - Dr. Mindy Malik  & Dr. Bryan Davey

Components of the ACCEL Model Classroom:

Enhancing Teacher Effectiveness and Improving Academic and Behavioral Outcomes

 

This session will present a protocol for assessing and training teachers in establishing components of an ACCEL model classroom for students with autism and other developmental disabilities.  This protocol integrates evidence based components, including the principles of applied behavior analysis, structured teaching methods, effective instruction, classroom management, and a functional curriculum.  Video illustrations and data analysis demonstrate the impact on teacher effectiveness and student achievement across academic and behavioral domains.  The protocol is tied to teacher promotional levels, designed to increase teacher satisfaction and longevity within the program.  Participants will acquire the fundamentals of ACCEL model classroom assessment and intervention.

 

D2 - Donna McConnico

Employment Practices; What You Don't Know CAN Hurt You!

 

Trying to weave your way through infinite maze of human resources issues and employment laws can leave you more than just dazed and confused, it could land you in jail! Learn what your organization needs to be able to steer clear of some common human resources related problems and how to keep you and your staff out of court.

 

A3 -Cathy Purple Cherry

Benefiting Special Needs Schools Through Sensitive Design and Green Elements

 

A wealth of information is available regarding successful teaching methods for children with disabilities.  But do our schools’ built-environments foster these methods or could improvements be made to help support our learning environments for these kids?  Explore how building design, space layout and facility enhancements, including the use of “green materials”, promote student independence, increase productivity and reduce conflict and distraction.  Topics for discussion include Personal Space Issues and the Social Dance; Distraction Inhibitors; and Colors, Patterns, and Tactile Issues, as well as several other key design factors that encourage successful learning. Further, discover the intricacies of “Sustainable Design” and how green elements not only improve learning but also save operating dollars and open up additional funding sources for school construction and marketing opportunities

 

B3- Chuck Durgin

Turning the Ship: Moving from a Transition Mindset to an Outcome Driven Model of Service

 

Achieving positive student outcomes requires an intensely focused, highly strategic, and collaborative effort from many individuals (i.e., students, family members, teachers, related service staff, community agencies, etc.). The purpose of this presentation will be to discuss several principles and methods that can help secondary educational programs adjust their services to be more outcome-driven. This will include a discussion of knowledge-based models and direct practices that can increase staff expertise, enroll greater levels of family involvement, prioritize programming efforts, secure community supports, and ultimately improve service delivery.

EDUCATORS LEADING THE WAY: My Personal Journey Thru Illiteracy

 

The nation has lost confidence in our leaders- the on going war on terror- the surge in violent crime in much of America…All of this points to a "lack of leadership". From Afghanistan to Iraq and to New Orleans post-Katrina and all of the places in between, I've seen up close and first hand the high cost of what happens when leadership fails. We have a surplus of Lawyers, preachers, politicians, etc.  Smart people we got.  Righteous leadership - in short supply. My own personal journey thru illiteracy and stuttering speak to some of the very same issues:   personal responsibility, education and training, mentoring and nurturing all are key ingredients to making someone into a LEADER….and that is where you and NAPSEC come in.”
