This spring, OAR teamed up with several experts from its Scientific Council to deliver a three-part webinar series about autism education. This series included presentations on connection and community building, the development of confidence in mathematics, and wellbeing integration for teachers and students.
Each webinar provided extensive information and practical strategies for special education teachers, self-advocates, caregivers, and community members on how to meaningfully and authentically support autistic people in the classroom. If you missed any of the live events because they took place during school hours, then we encourage you to watch or share the archived events for convenient self-paced viewing.
A total of 185 out of 704 registrants attended the live events. Of the 119 participants who provided feedback, 98% percent reported the content as being helpful and relevant to their needs. One attendee who participated in Practical Ways to Integrate Wellbeing into Special Education for Teachers and Students said, “This was one of the most engaging webinars I have attended. Thank you!”
We want to thank the expert presenters for sharing such thoughtful and informative information on how to better support autistic advocates and encourage their academic leaders. Stay tuned for updates on the 2024 fall webinars!
