]]> 2020-09-10 19:18:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736708151 There are several similarities and differences between a virtual and in person meeting. In both you are able to discuss and make decisions about the student with ARC members. In both, you are able to share data with ARC; physical documents during in person, and data can be shared on screen during virtual meeting. For parents who work, virtual meetings are often easier for them, since they do not necessarily have to leave their jobs to participate. With virtual, you may have technical failures that could effect your meeting. In virtual, you are unable to obtain physical signatures on the conference summary page or for consent forms. https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736708300 2020-09-10 19:18:14 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736708300 When meeting virtually, you must ensure the family has the means to meet virtually, while also taking the same steps as you would for an in personmeeting. https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736710649 2020-09-10 19:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736710649 https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736710946 We offer in person for parents who do not feel comfortable with virtual meetings. The ARC, parent, student, and SpEd teacher are present with masks and social distancing while teachers attend virtually. We project the virtual meeting on a screen so parents can see the teachers clearly. ]]> 2020-09-10 19:18:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736710946 Question: Can both be started with a positive note that after introductions, stating the purpose of the meeting, and parent rights... teachers can talk about good things about the student? grace_absher https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736713219 2020-09-10 19:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736713219 https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736725005 Ensure that the family has the means to meet virtually with phone access if problems occur.

The only difference would be that one would be in person while the other would be on a computer. The same procedures should be done in both cases. https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736728193 2020-09-10 19:23:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736728193 Group 3 https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736731806 We discussed how much more difficult it is and how disconnected we feel when meetings have to be conducted virtually. We don't want the importance of the meeting to be discredited simply because it isn't in person.]]> 2020-09-10 19:24:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_davis7/3pcojxvnwuv11gmo/wish/736731806
