DESCRIPTION:Using AI & the 5F Model for Strengths-Based MTSS & IEPs: Meeting All the Needs\n\n04/07/26 04:30 PM CST\n - 04/07/26 05:30 PM CST\Description:\n\nBring a Friend to our April Web Event!\n\nUsing AI & the 5F Model for Strengths-Based MTSS & IEPs: Meeting All the Needs\nPresented by Dr. Claire Hughes, President of CEC-TAG\n\nTuesday April 7, 2026 4:30 p.m.\n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION\nIn twice-exceptional education, the "strengths-based approach" often conflicts with an IEP process that focuses on weaknesses. This session will highlight the transformative 5F model for IEP/504/BIP development that uses positive educational strategies to develop strengths while mediating the impacts of disability. Practical strategies through the use of AI for crafting strengths-oriented assessments, PLAAFs, goals and accommodations will create educational plans that truly empower 2e students.\n\nInvite a colleague from special education or the parent of a twice exceptional child to attend with you this month.
