LEARNstyle’s Coaching
LEARNstyle’s training is designed to enhance and complement the work of the vision teacher in the delivery of the expanded core curriculum (ECC) with a shared goal of setting the student up for success in school and beyond. Vision itinerants carry the responsibility of teaching the nine essential skill areas of the ECC one of which is assistive technology. Vision technologies can be the most diverse and complicated of all technologies used in education. Each student’s assortment of technology tools can vary making it even harder to develop a level of proficiency needed.
Every time our LEARNstyle coach comes to provide support, both my student and myself achieve an increased level of knowledge, comfort and efficiency with using her technology.”
– Vision Itinerant Teacher, October 2019
