 * About Dianne**

Having been involved in education in New Brunswick, Quebec, and Ontario, Dianne has worked with students from Kindergarten to University level. She has presented at conferences (e.g. ASET, ECOO) on the implementation of UDL in the classroom.

As a Special Education Teacher, Dianne has learned the importance of all students particpating in the classroom. As a classroom teacher practicing differentiation, she understands the demands on teachers' time to effectively plan to meet the needs of all students. Learning to use technology (IT), and SEA software and hardware (AT) to teach by blending IT with AT to develop a model for instruction, student activities, and assessment is at times a frustrating and a daunting task. "The results, whether academic or social, are well worth the effort."

Currently, Dianne is receiving support for her work through the Teacher Learning and Leadership Program (TLLP) funded by the Ministry of Education in Ontario. She hopes to persue her PhD in the near future.
