Educators have long known that students often lose hard-earned academic skills over the summer months. Students who learn differently are at even greater risk for the dreaded “summer slide.”
Join us to discuss the changing learning environment students who learn differently face on their path to college readiness. We’ll also explore why summer represents a critical turning point for them to get off their devices, connect in a meaningful way with peers outside the pressures of social media, and explore their interests.
In this recorded session, presenter Alex Morris-Wood shares his unique perspective on summer learning. He currently is head of Connecticut’s Franklin Academy and chair of the Disabilities & Neurodiversity Special Interest Group for the National Association of College Admission Counselors (NACAC). Until last year, Alex served as Beacon’s vice president for program development and global partnerships; he continues to serve as a program and neurodiversity advisor for Beacon College.
