Meghan Tonsetic is a learning specialist at Lawrence Upper School, an independent school for students with learning differences in Broadview Heights and Sagamore Hills, Ohio. The school uses various assistive technologies to enhance reading, writing, and learning for students. These include Read & Write Gold software, Inspiration concept mapping software, text-to-speech, speech-to-text, word prediction, and translation tools. Teachers receive training to incorporate these tools into classroom instruction across subjects. The goal is to destigmatize assistive technology by having all students and staff trained and using various tools.
