= **__OVERVIEW OF SECONDARY WORKSHOP__** =

The creation of a school and classroom infrastructure of how a learner experiencing disabilities may recognize herself or himself as an equitable participant in the classroom and school will underlie the workshop. We will discuss the rationale for including learners experiencing disabilities in regular classes, areas of professional involvement for regular subject teachers, Special Education Resource Teachers, and Educational Assistants, and the program connection to Character Development. Discussion will be supported by in-class exercises, handouts, visual materials, other resources, and contributions by a recent secondary student who was enrolled in special education programs. An interactive approach will be used.** Time for questions will complete the workshop. Examples of resources for inclusion will be available
