This is a Powerpoint presentation about the use of assistive technology(AT) devices and services in the field of education. It defines assistive technology, describes the laws regarding AT in education, and provides examples of AT used in classrooms today for a variety of different disabilities.
This is a show that gives information on assistive technology and how it might apply with the hearing impaired, seeing impaired, learning disabled, and the physically disabled.
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.

This presentation provides a briefing on how to upload submissions and documents in Google Classroom. It was prepared as part of an orientation for new Sainik School in-service teacher trainees. As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. What is AssistiveTechnology?
“Assistive technology applied to education is extremely broad, encompassing "any item, piece of
equipment, or product system whether acquired commercially off the shelf, modified, or
customized, that is used to increase, maintain, or improve functional capabilities of individuals
with disabilities.“
http://www.edutopia.org/assistive-technology-young-children-special-education
3. AssistiveTechnology and the Law
• The law regarding assistive technology has improved substantially over the last decade to assist students with disabilities of all ages.
• Technology-RelatedAssistance for Individuals with DisabilitiesAct (P.L. 100-407) was signed into law by President Reagan on August 19, 1988.This
law provides funding to develop statewide, consumer-responsive information and training programs designed to meet the assistive technology (AT)
needs of individuals with disabilities of all ages.ThisACT is often called theTechAct.
• TheACT’s purpose is to provide individuals with disabilities with assistive devices, promote awareness that there are resources available
• Under the law, each U.S. state and territory receives a grant to fund an AssistiveTechnologyAct Project (ATAP).These projects provide services to
persons with disabilities for their entire life span, as well as to their families or guardians, service providers, and agencies and other entities that are
involved in providing services such as education and employment to persons with disabilities
4. Assistive technology for the hearing impaired
• Hearing loop (or induction loop) systems use electromagnetic energy to transmit sound. A hearing loop system
involves four parts:
• A sound source, such as a public address system, microphone, or homeTV or telephone
• An amplifier
• A thin loop of wire that encircles a room or branches out beneath carpeting
• A receiver worn in the ears or as a headset
5. AssistiveTechnology for the visually impaired
Thanks to advances in technology students that are visually impaired can complete classwork just as there sighted peers. Advances in visual technology
includes:
• Assistive technology programs that can speak the text on the screen or magnify the text in a word processor, web browser, e-mail program or other
application
• Stand-alone products designed specifically for people who are blind or visually impaired, including personal digital assistants (PDAs) and electronic book
players provide portable access to books, phone numbers, appointment calendars, and more.
• Optical character recognition systems scan printed material and speak the text. Braille embossers turn text files into hard-copy braille.

6. AssistiveTechnology for the Learning Disabled
• Assistive technology for kids with Learning Disability can be defined as any device, piece of equipment or
system that helps bypass, work around or compensate for an individual's specific learning deficits.
• Assistive technology can focus on many types of learning difficulties. A student who has difficulty writing
can compose a school assignment by dictating it and having it converted to text by special software.
• Students with disabilities such as dyslexia ay benefit from technology that will read aloud for them.
• There are also assistive tools to help with memory, recognition, and organization.
• Certain assistive technology tools can help people who have difficulty processing and remembering spoken
language, such as recorders for lectures.

7. AssistiveTechnology for Physical Disabilities
• Students with physical disabilities may have difficulty with mobility, and therefore may need assistive
devices to help them become mobile.
• Equipment that allows a student with a physical or visual disability to move independently and safely
through the community.This includes wheelchairs, walkers, and adapted bicycles.
