Now that school is out for the summer, teacher Edith Lawson is returning to the classroom for some learning of her own. But Lawson’s courses will happen in her own home and at whatever time fits her daily schedule. She’s learning ways to better serve special needs students, and she’s doing it with study materials sent to her home, online modules and an email support group. Lawson is among thousands of Texas teachers who’ve discovered the Career and Technical Special Populations Training and Resource Center. It’s a virtual learning site, http://ctsp.tamu.edu, operated by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service with the support of Texas Education Agency.
