On the third and last day as speakers on this List, I wanted to share
with you one of the things that Jean and I, as Learning Disabilities
Specialists, offer to students and teachers. We have developed "50
Minute Workshops" on various topics, and we love to present them in
classrooms at teachers' request. I am attaching a list of the workshops
we currently offer...we are always adding more.

The most frequently requested topics are Test Anxiety, Stress
Management, Memory Strategies, How the Brain Works, and Study Skills.
We get a positive response from both the students and their teachers.
It is fun and rewarding to hear students walking down the hall or
sitting in their classrooms discussing how they are growing their
dendrites! I think that teaching students about their learning is one of
the most powerful aspects of the LD Specialist job. In the spirit of
UDL the workshops are presented to all students, not just the ones who
have learning disabilities.
