Supporting Neurodiversity in Post-Secondary Education: Workshop (Part 2)
Applying Your Knowledge of Neurodiversity in Teaching, Learning, and Advising
Feb. 27, 2025
Facilitator: Sarah Silverman
Host: Britt Dzioba
ASL Interpreting team: Debbie Miyashita, Jess Caroll
In this workshop, participants will begin with an overview of the range of laws and policies governing disability inclusion in higher education, with a focus on their connection to neurodiversity. Using a series of complex case studies, participants will practice navigating scenarios involving neurodiversity in the classroom and other learning spaces, including situations in where disabilities are disclosed or remain undisclosed.
The session will also provide opportunities for participants to reflect on their own relationship to neurodiversity and to set actionable goals for fostering greater inclusion in their teaching, learning, and advising practices. By bridging theoretical knowledge with practical strategies, this workshop equips participants to create more inclusive environments for neurodivergent individuals in higher education.
