TxCAN - Grow your knowledge base with our video library and STAAR Alternate 2 online course!
The Texas Complex Access Network, or TxCAN, is creating a new paradigm of acceptance and potential for students with significant cognitive disabilities.
TX CAN’s video library is rapidly growing as videos continue to be added for families, educators, and administrators. Current offerings include the “Straight Talk” family series and “Excerpts from the Expert” series featuring Dr. Cheryl Jorgensen, an expert on inclusion for students with significant cognitive disabilities. Administrators won’t want to miss the administrator series that focuses on effective practices and offers suggestions for supporting educators working with students with complex access needs.
Stay on top of state alternate assessment changes with TX CAN’s STAAR Alternate 2: Before, During, and After the Assessment online course. The training provides guidance for teachers in preparing students for the test, test administration, and using test results to inform future instruction. You'll get an overview, history, and details of the test while also gaining access to tools and resources.
The TxCAN network is here to support you and the students in your life. Visit txcan.tea.texas.gov to check out all the amazing resources, or contact me, your regional TxCAN representative!
