SPECIAL EDUCATION RESOURCES FOR TEACHERS - DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY

This special education book series is designed to support teachers in their teaching of junior secondary students with learning disabilities or low literacy skills in all common secondary learning areas. They contain units of work that have been adjusted to help students learn the most important subject matter usually covered in Years 7–9 across Australia.

All units have been designed to achieve outcomes drawn from the Statements of Learning that have been developed by State and Territory education authorities and which are relevant nationally. Each unit contains an overview of the total unit which acts as a pre-teaching organiser, a glossary of new terms, vocabulary learning activities, core information presented in a simplified format, and activities that are designed to help the students learn the most important subject matter. Learning activities are itemised at the beginning of each unit so both students and teacher can monitor individual progress throughout. Lists of useful websites for each Unit are also included. Both students and teacher have an opportunity to evaluate the unit, and the extent of assistance required.

These books will help teachers differentiate their teaching in order to meet the needs of all their students through a variety of structured but motivating learning activities that will encourage students to think deeply and engage with challenging material.
