Welcome to the TI 101 Learning Courses!
What is Tele-intervention?
Tele-Intervention (TI) - the provision of early intervention services via teleconferencing technology - has become increasingly popular as a method to increase access to services for families of children with special needs, especially families of children who are deaf or hard of hearing In fact, Research has shown that children who receive services via tele-intervention (or TI) make as much or more progress than children who receive services through traditional in-person visits (Blaiser, Behl, Callow-Heusser, & White, 2013; Behl, et al 2015).
