Using Technology As A Remedial Resource To Improve
Using technology can help improve student learning in three main ways. It allows students to learn about technology, learn from technology through interactive software, and learn with technology by working with others. Technology provides resources to help students with disabilities or English language learners. Educators should start by familiarizing themselves with technology, involve students, and have students teach each other with online resources.

Technology has helped transform education by facilitating new forms of learning. Assistive technology enables students with disabilities to perform functions that may otherwise be difficult. Assistive technologies include alternative keyboards, touch screens, and communication devices. Technology also allows students to work cooperatively on research and presentations. It benefits at-risk learners by reducing feelings of being overwhelmed, fostering cooperation, and assessing complex task completion rather than just test scores. However, technology should only be used to enhance lessons, not be the sole focus of every class.
Chapter 21 Technology
1. The document discusses factors to consider when selecting educational technologies for distance learning programs.
2. Technology should support educational goals and decisions, not drive them. The chosen technologies must serve the instructional program goals and facilitate learning.
3. Multiple factors should guide the choice of technologies, including supporting best practices, designing for ease of use, and building on existing infrastructure. The needs and skills of both instructors and learners are important to consider.
The Use of Technology in the Classroom
This document discusses the use of technology in K-12 classrooms to facilitate instruction. It outlines different types of technologies used, including computers, software, the internet, and videos. Computers are highlighted as the most common technology, and their uses such as word processing, email communication, and research projects are described. The document argues that technology enhances learning by allowing students to communicate, improve writing skills, collaborate on projects, and virtually experience places from around the world.
Assisting and accommodating students’ needs
The document discusses various assistive technologies and classroom accommodations for students with different disabilities, including ADHD, learning disabilities, and hearing impairments. It provides examples of invisible clocks for time management for ADHD students, audio books and text-to-speech programs for learning disabilities, and hearing assistive technology systems for hearing impairments. It also notes that some strategies like e-dictionaries can benefit all students.

Bo Hartley Warren Assistive Technology Presentation
Assistive technology refers to tools that help people with disabilities function but are not intended to fix deficits directly. These tools can range from simple items like tape recorders to more advanced computers and devices. Laws like IDEA require schools to provide assistive technology and related services to students with disabilities so they can benefit from education. Examples of assistive technology include talking calculators for vision impairments, FM systems for hearing impairments, and eye-tracking software for physical disabilities. The tools are meant to help students work around limitations and focus on learning.
Tools for learning
Assistive technology (AT) helps people with disabilities perform tasks they were previously unable or had difficulty performing. AT includes devices and processes. When a child is struggling to learn or use tools for learning, AT should be incorporated into their educational process. Determining a child's AT needs involves creating an Individualized Education Plan with parents, teachers, and professionals. Locating AT resources involves searching websites that describe tools for visual, auditory, and mild disabilities as well as developmental stages. It is important to reevaluate a student's learning regularly to ensure the best learning experience.

This document discusses assistive technology and its uses in the classroom. It begins by defining assistive technology as any device or service that helps students with disabilities achieve their full potential as outlined in their IEP. Examples are then given of assistive technologies for different disabilities, including FM systems for hearing impairments, braille printers for visual impairments, learning software for learning disabilities, and trackball mice for physical disabilities. The document concludes by listing references used.
Ed3508 assign2
This document discusses effective technology integration methods for 21st century learners. It introduces tools like smartboards, computers, blogs, iTunes/podcasts, and laptops. Smartboards allow teachers to present information and for students to interact with lessons. Computers provide learning opportunities and teach vital skills like typing. Blogs facilitate communication and access to class materials. iTunes and podcasts stimulate learning through audio and visual content. Laptops provide portable access to technology resources. Effective technology integration provides students with easy access to educational tools and information.
Digital Technology in Education
Digital technology uses binary numbers (1s and 0s) to process information. There are several types of digital technology used in education, including productivity tools, instructional software, computer-based learning, general references, and research tools. Productivity tools help with tasks like photo editing and simulations. Instructional software provides lessons and assessments to students. Computer-based learning uses computers as the primary tool for instruction and can track student progress. General references include encyclopedias and dictionaries. Research tools allow students to search various sources online. Digital technology enhances education by creating new learning environments and allowing information manipulation and new teaching strategies.
Assistive technology
This document discusses assistive technology and how it can help students with disabilities access educational materials. Assistive technology is any device or equipment that helps compensate for a student's disability. There is little difference between educational technology used in classrooms and assistive technology, as they are often interrelated and assistive technology is personalized to each student. Universal design for learning incorporates principles of accessing education through a student's strongest learning mode. The document provides examples of assistive technologies for different types of disabilities and impairments.

Assistive technology
- 2. Definition Assistive technology is anything that helps students with disabilities get on a “level playing field.” It can come in the form of computer programs or something simple, like a pencil grip.
- 3. Word Processing Microsoft word or Google docs is an effective assistive technology for students with mild disabilities. Students are able to work much faster by typing instead of relying on their writing abilities. This can also increase motivation. http://www.ericdigests.org/2003-1/assistive.htm
- 4. Assistive Hearing Technology Teachers can wear a mic that is connected to an ear piece on a student who is hard of hearing. These pieces of technology are often times small and discrete to protect the students self esteem. http://www.asha.org/public/hearing/treatment/assist_tech.htm
- 5. E-Books These can also be an effective assistive technology Students can download the novel and an audio file of the novel. This technology can help students who read below grade level. http://assistivetechnologyforeducation.com/examples-of-assistive- technology/
