About Our Workshops

Partnering with knowledgeable, vendor-neutral professionals and other non-profits, Bookshare is now offering on-site Professional Development workshops on key topics for students with print disabilities: Accessible Instructional Materials and Bookshare in the classroom. All workshops include the following key components:

  • Best practices and standards for professional development
  • A focus on student needs and improved student achievement
  • Accessible Instructional Materials (AIM) and assistive technology in the classroom
  • Hands-on activities
  • Follow-up virtual coaching for sustained learning

In addition, every participant will develop and leave with actionable plans that are taken into the classroom to support a positive shift in both teacher and student performance.

Available workshops include:

These hands-on, on site workshops provide more in depth professional development than Bookshare’s online webinars, with practice and reinforcement for every participant resulting in greater expertise and carryover into daily activities.

I'll be able to use Bookshare as a tool to encourage reading. Thank you!
