Can Online Courses And Blended Learning Models Aid Special Education?

by iSchool Guide


Blended learning models and online courses are the latest trend in modern education. But an unexpected group of students may benefit from new technology in the classroom. Virtual programs can be tailored to specifically assist students with disabilities. According to Education Week, some schools are offering online speech therapy classes with video interactivity and other schools are compiling digital courses designed specifically with the needs of special education students in mind. In the past, existing online courses would be tailored for students with disabilities. While there isn’t a lot of evidence about the effectiveness of this new approach, some teachers are already touting the benefits of blended learning models and online courses for their special education students.
