This "SSDVE (Supporting Students with Disabilities in Virtual Environments) Presents" session supports practitioners in becoming fully aware of the latest policies relevant to supporting students with disabilities in virtual learning environments. Presenters will share considerations and perspectives from the field concerning the use of virtual environments and tools to replace, supplement, or extend classroom learning. Guiding questions include: How can virtual environments be leveraged when students are unable to attend in-person (e.g. quarantining at home, weather-related closures)? How can learning extend beyond the classroom using virtual environments? How can virtual environments engage families in students’ learning?
