Dandy-Walker Consultation:
This artifact showcases my ability to consult with colleagues and parents about issues that affect my professional practice. Dandy-Walker syndrome is a malformation of the brain that can affect a child's cognition and motor ability. As a special education teacher, I am always eager to understand my students exceptionalities in order to help make school more accessible to them. Understanding my students needs also helps me when articulating to school colleagues about students unique needs and how that affects them within an educational setting. This is crucial to the success of my student that they are given the accommodation they need to be able to participate in the general curriculum. In this video you will hear about Dandy-Walker syndrome, its implications in a general education classroom, and specific teaching strategies that professionals can use when working with students who have Dandy-Walker syndrome. I use strategies of consultation learned in SERP 415 at the College of Education by engaging in this consultation video as an advocacy and mentoring project for general education professionals.
