In this session, participants will learn the multi-step process to collaboratively plan for individual students with extensive support needs. This process can be used for any learner who is being included for the first time, who is transitioning from a more restrictive setting to an inclusive setting, or when a school team wants to improve participation, membership, or performance in social and/or academic areas. The Maryland Coalition for Inclusive Education (MCIE) has adapted the MAPS process to design supports for all learners with extensive needs so that they can participate in general education instruction and school settings as a successful and valued member of their school community. This individual student planning process is flexible so that each team can focus on planning for their unique learners. This structure begins or expands upon a structure for various educators and service providers to work as a team for creative problem solving.
