Keep Calm and Presume Competence
Embassy Suites
East Peoria, IL
Share this event:


The Least Dangerous Assumption is to Presume All Students Competence!

When students with Down syndrome
or other disabilities have difficulty
communicating they are often assumed
to have an intellectual disability.

Dr. Jorgensen will present an argument for
presuming all students competence to learn
academics in an inclusive
general education classroom,
communicate about age-appropriate academic
and social topics, make and sustain reciprocal
social relationships, and go on to post-secondary
education and life in the community.

Shell challenge our assumptions
about intelligence, inclusion, and
communicative competence and ask us to
adopt new assumptions that will promote a
high quality educational experience and rich
quality of life.
