Resumes...a different spin??

To paraphrase a colloquialism, "not all resumes are built the same".  The purpose of this weeks activity is to be mindful that resume construction for a low incidence disabled student can take many forms.  
Using the neuro-development checklists helped our group build a portfolio for the student that we were assigned.  I found this activity to be very enlightening in that it connected several key aspects of what students like "Jessica" deal with on a daily basis.  As I reflect on this activity, supporting the resource teacher is imperative to the success of students like Jessica.

Which brings to mind a thought about the concept of pre-teaching especially when it comes to using new technology.  Correctly framing how technology is used and taught can bring about different outcomes to the activity.  I look forward to seeing how others in this course interpreted the use of technology and how it supports the student moving forward.
