Becoming Self-Determined: Improving Self-Determination Skills in College Students
Dr. Patty Violi of the Center for Accessible Education presents her session from Illuminate 2025. Students with disabilities are entering college campuses across the nation in increasing numbers and accessing accommodations that create equitable opportunities for them in college. Most students with disabilities come to college with little understanding of how support in a higher education setting differs from their K-12 experience. This session will explore techniques on helping students with and without disabilities improve their self-determination skills, which will help them gain skills to excel in the college environment.
