The 1st International Conference on Teaching Deaf Learners will be held in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
How can deaf and hard of hearing students best be taught given their individual strengths and needs? Be inspired by national and international presenters from several continents and diverse backgrounds. All authoritative experts in their own fields, keynote and symposium presenters are eager to share their thoughts, ideas, and research about teaching deaf learners.
This 5 day intensive Summer Institute will provide comprehensive training in functional assessment and positive behavior support (PBS) with a specific focus on application with deaf students who have additional developmental disabilities. Deaf children with developmental disabilities frequently engage in problem behaviors that find them isolated from educational settings.
