Imagine that you are a special education teacher and you have been asked by your administrator to support a novice teacher who has never heard the term self-determination. How would you explain the concept of self-determination, and how important it is for all children with disabilities to develop these skills? What strategies would you suggest to this teacher to help to promote and teach these skills through classroom instruction?
Guided Response: Review the posts of several of your classmates. Respond to at least two of your peers as if you were the novice teacher to whom they are providing advice. What questions might you ask to clarify how to teach self-determination skills? What challenges do you anticipate in teaching self-determination skills for which you might need additional support and advice? Be sure to check back to your own initial posts to continue the dialogue with peers who responded to you.
