Integrating technology and digital media production in her Autistic Support Classroom, Michele McKeone has helped circumvent her students' learning variations so they achieve beyond high expectations. This approach not only naturally increases critical and convergent thinking skills, but also develops a deep sense of empowerment and autonomy. Students learn advanced technological & communication skills while creating original music, blogs, web sites, wikis, videos and much more. With these developing skills, they are able to assess & convey what they have learned as well as what they personally think, feel and believe.
