Dysgraphia 101 (Dysgraphia Series, Part 1) Virtual - 34391
This introductory session provides educational diagnosticians with a clear understanding of dysgraphia as defined by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and its relationship to specific learning disabilities in written expression. Participants will delve into the TEA criteria for dysgraphia, explore how it manifests differently from other writing-based learning disabilities, and review the key components of a comprehensive evaluation. Through case examples and discussion, attendees will gain practical insights into selecting appropriate assessment tools and interpreting data to make informed eligibility decisions and develop effective support recommendations. This session is aligned with the evaluation components of the TEA-required self-assessment.
