Alyssa Crow's "Inclusion and Access: Peers as Resources in the Composition Classroom" presenting today at 3:00 p.m. In the WritingCenter, ASBN 108.

Studies show that faculty shy away from working with students with learning differences.

Resources? Other faculty, offices on campus, the writing center, adaptive technology lab, an Alkek librarian who specializes in disability affairs, and we have each other.

Make respect and discussions of respect central to your class. Also discuss different learning styles. Assign rather than allow students to choose groups because some may be ostracized. Highlight students' strengths. Individualize instruction.
