- Under the Table tells the story of how our assumptions influence not only how we act, but how we treat others. This story is one of understanding and realization that all students are are capable and contributors in their communities. We know that diversity is a strength, but if we are to truly move inclusive education forward in our schools, we need to understand the essential component of presuming competence.
Shelley Moore has worked in both elementary and secondary schools supporting students with and without special needs in inclusive contexts in Alberta, New York and British Columbia. She is currently an inclusive consultant in the Richmond School District, as well as various other districts throughout the province. She has presented conferences both nationally and internationally, and is a sessional instructor at Simon Fraser University, University of British Columbia and University Of British Columbia - Okanagan
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
I need to be reminded all the time - not that this is important - but that it's DOABLE! Thank you, Shelley.
Such a powerful talk! As the parent of a child who does not fluently speak, Shelley's words hit the mark for me. While my son does not appear "typical", he easily understand everything he hears or reads. Despite this, he is unable to attend typical classrooms in order to obtain a full education. Assuming competence is exactly what we need to do.
As one who works with students with disabilities, every time I make a break through; where I can tell that I am getting through to them, no matter how small and insignificant, is a success.
You are right on the money with this one Ms. Moore. As a SPED Paraprofessional. Our kids are magic and I learn something new every day! Thanks!
I’m in tears. If we could treat everyone like this, including our children, parents, communication would bring about so many new possibilities and make the world better for it. God bless❤️ thank you for this message
Shelley is brilliant as a story teller here. Really heart touching... and funny too
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You So Much! Hits home. So needed. So on the mark. Again, Thank You! DM
I am incredibly moved by your take on presuming competence! Your story is so powerful and I can't wait to share it far and wide! Thank you!
I was moved to tears. Goose bumps. I can't wait to learn more.
You continue to AWW me!! Thank you for your wisdom.
Once again, Shelley uses powerful metaphor, humour, and touching stories to convey powerful messages about how we need to rethink our perspectives in order to meet the needs of our learners.
moved to tears - this is why i love what i do!! her speech will stick with me always!
This woman is hysterical! I'm so glad my university instructor has me watching this. I feel a lot of connection with her obsession and personality, definitely a teacher I want to be like.
Thank you for sharing your stories Shelley - so powerful!!
Thank you for this wonderful talk. Well wishes from NZ!
Thank you so much for doing this. Your insight and approach are nothing short of brilliant! From my experience as the mother of an autistic child (who, I feel fortunate to say, is very high functioning), I can tell you that your discovery about competence and bridging worlds of perception are spot-on. You are inspirational!
YES YES YES YES! fantastic talk. Thank you!
Excellent TED Talk by our PhD student! So proud of you, Shelley.
Very moving and touching how she goes above and beyond in assessing this challenging student. Her unique style and her interest in caring finally paid off for student. She's simply amazing, can we can learn more from her?
Such a powerful message by Shelley.. would love to hear more
Wow, great Tedxtalk Shelley. Very inspiring to hear your story. It is amazing how much you can learn from the children themselves. Like us, they too have a story to tell.
Amazing. Shelley spoke some real truth for myself and my own bias!
I enjoy your messages and how you present them.
Brilliant. Thank you.
This is an amazing talk. Thanks Shelly:)
BRILLIANT AS USUAL!!!
Arrasou!!!!
An amazing story! Thanks for sharing this!
Just heard her today in Vancouver...WOW WOW WOW!
I wish the art, music, and phys ed teachers in my community could see this video. Most of them don't do a blasted thing for the kids in the special ed classes because they don't think they can learn anything.
We must always assume that an individual can be successful despite the varied degrees of communication that is already known for the individual.
Phenomenal!
Great Video! Absolutely loved it!
Amazing!
Presumed competence in collaborative working relationships
omg shes amazing !
Wow wow wow yes yes yes
I loved the video and talk about what she did with Daniel. I just wondered if Daniel was Deafblind, how did she talk to him? How did he hear her?
Daniel was appropriately named.
You know what the name Daniel means?
It means "judge of God."
This is how I would get amazing results with Alzheimer's patients... They're still themselves, but missing a few connections.
Kids like that are locked in their brain and they just look for ways to entertain themselves
