This is the beginning of the project. I successfully created a blog after meeting with Dawn Pendergast today for an hour to discuss the project. Some decisions have been made now about what will be happening with this whole process. I am going to focus the project on special needs since that is what my major is and where my heart is. For this week and next, I am going to be doing a lot of research on the project to get a good background and data base to move forward. Although I do know quite a bit about special needs, I need to learn more specifically about the needs of Baldwin county, Milledgeville, and the special needs community here.
Before moving forward with this project, I also looked back today to the experiences and problems I have witnessed within the special needs community. These are the examples I came up with:
Email Communication
Ordering online
too many choices on internet
unsafe for youths
voice box for pecs system
radio signal for hearing
no friends
parental networking
common interests
common disabilities
entertainment
music
learning games
way to connect regular ed with special ed
make these children feel successful and included
video games
electronic guitar
The next step is to research by having conversations, meetings, and using resources.
