This
Great Resource for Behavioural Exceptionality website clearly and
concisely outlines the many Behavioural Exceptionalities and offers strategies
to assist with teaching these students and to help support student learning. It
is developed by a reputable source, the Ontario Teachers Federation and
therefore it is designed for teaching professionals. The URL indicates that its
domain is probably commercial because it includes ‘.ca’ and is therefore
probably not a personal website or a hoax. If you truncate the URL or just
click on ‘home’ you will find the opening webpage that explains the Ontario
Teachers Federation philosophy with respect to the website and that it is developed
with funding from the Ministry of Education. Since I am a qualified Teacher in Ontario I have done my
due diligence in this area and I know that the Ontario Teachers Federation is
an authority in the field of teaching. From this I know that it is
reliable and objective and that it is kept current with in-depth information.
Its intrinsic value is such that you will find extensive information and won’t
need to look elsewhere for the same information. There isn’t any advertising on
the page other than the Ontario Teachers Federation logo therefore there aren’t
any distractions from the content and the headings highlighted so they are easy
to spot when reading. There are related links and resources that indicate that
this is quality information without bias. All of the links are well chosen,
well organized and they all work. I chose this website as a resource for
teaching professionals of students with behaviour exceptionalities because it
proves to be credible. The audience of teaching professionals may include
Special Education Resource Teachers, Education Assistants, Behavioural
Therapists/Consultants, Teachers, Principals, Educational Psychologists, Early
Childhood Educators, and resource staff.
