Tools for Interactive and Engaged Learning
Funded Dec 3, 2024Learning materials from DonorsChoose have had a profound impact on students, especially in special education classrooms. These resources engage students by offering hands-on, interactive tools that make learning more accessible and enjoyable, helping to increase attention and participation. With materials tailored to different learning styles, such as visual aids, multisensory activities, and specialized devices, students are given alternative routes to understanding key concepts. New materials also boost motivation, showing students that their education is supported by others, which inspires greater effort and persistence. Additionally, these tools support individualized learning needs, particularly for students with IEPs, by providing differentiated instruction and accommodations to meet specific goals. DonorsChoose materials foster independence, helping students build autonomy through visual schedules, task organizers, and educational games that encourage self-guided learning. Overall, these resources have created a more inclusive, stimulating, and productive classroom environment, promoting academic success and personal growth.”
