“As the saying goes “a picture is worth a thousand words”, since
infographics have both ‘pictures’ and ‘words’, it represents the
best of both worlds: the ability to dissect a complex subject, and
the ability to sustain the attention of the reader while doing so. “It
(infographic) keeps people’s interest by lending a storytelling and
visual element to what can be sterile research.” – Caitlin McCabe.”
Explore the benefits of infographics. Gain an understanding of
why the brain craves infographics. Discover the power of using
visual representations to creatively enhance content delivery,

interaction, and the joy of leading and learning.

We all have implicit biases. But if we fail to recognize our biases
and take concerted steps to mitigate their impact, they have the
potential to lead to unfair and potentially discriminatory treatment
of students, parents and staff. This workshop will provide
participants with an understanding of the key legal requirements
that are in place to ensure that all districts take thoughtful steps
to recognize, reduce and respond to implicit biases and ensure
that students and other stakeholders are treated fairly at all times.
The impact of the current pandemic on disciplining students with
disabilities, including codes of conduct and means of imposing
consequences and sanctions, will also be addressed. Participants
will gain knowledge and skills in:
• The legal responsibilities of school districts with respect to
identifying and addressing significant disproportionality;
• Possible causes of significant disproportionality, including
implicit bias; and
• Ways to look for, and address, significant disproportionality in
identification and eligibility of students, placement decisions,
and discipline of students with disabilities.
