Supporting Students with Learning Disabilities During Covid-19
Topic Area: Pandemic Pivot
Presented by: Ashley Maloff, Abby Johnson
Abstract:
The RCPD Stern Tutoring and Alternative Techniques for Education (STATE) Program began providing innovative and important assistance for MSU students with learning disabilities in the spring of 2004. Each fall and spring, the program works with partnered colleges at MSU to invite students with learning disabilities who are on academic probation or at risk of falling on probation to participate. STATE provides disability-specific instructional, tutorial, and peer mentoring components as well as strategies for academic success. When MSU courses transitioned to remote learning, instructors transitioned the STATE seminar to weekly Zoom sessions. Even though there was a drastic change in the format of the program, students continued to support each other, build community, and displayed a high degree of resilience. Come learn how this Program was moved online and was continuously improved over the three semesters of virtual learning.
