Kim Ingraham

My name is Kim Ingraham and I appreciate the time you've taken to explore my digital portfolio. I am an early childhood special education teacher, and I created this space to give colleagues and parents insight into my passion for education and technology integration in the classroom.

 

I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Education with an emphasis in Early Childhood Unified (Dec. 2014) and a Masters of Science in Education in Autism Spectrum Disorders (Dec. 2016). I have since been accepted into the University of Kansas' behavior analysis graduate program. I have aspirations to become a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and receive my National Board certification (NBPTS) within the next five years. My research interests include using positive behavior supports to prevent and shape behavior, reducing prompt dependency in students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), using evidence-based practices and validated curricula to promote social skills in students with ASD, and improving functional and novel use of language with students with ASD.

 

I am a lifelong learner and hope to instill my passion for learning into my young students. I proactively seek professional development including professional texts, webinars, and Twitter.
