Key Issues Design & Selection Training & Support Cost

Design & Selection Choosing the correct technology for a student is the key to helping with a child’s success: Based on the child’s previous experiences and abilities The environment where it will be used The child’s cultural beliefs and values systems Functionality and availability Based on barriers it might remove or create

Training & Support Explaining why assistive technology is necessary is an important step of successful implementation. Teachers must also be trained on how to use different equipment appropriately in the classroom. General education teachers benefit from an overall awareness of assistive technology.

Cost Initial investment must be considered, but it is not the only cost. Repairs and replacement will need to be considered in budgeting for assistive technology. Lecture will include ideas and strategies for locating resources that can assist in funding these necessary devices and services.
