This is a PowerPoint Presentation about Assistive Technology and its use with Special Needs Students. This was completed as part of a Webquest on Assistive Technology for one of my M.Ed. classes.
This document provides an overview of assistive technology for general education teachers. It defines assistive technology as any item or equipment that increases the functional abilities of students with disabilities. All students with IEPs must have assistive technology considered. Examples of assistive technology include low-tech options like pencil grippers and high-tech options over $5,000. Schools must provide assistive technology services including evaluation of student needs, training, and coordinating with other therapies. An implementation plan template is referenced to help schools effectively plan assistive technology use.
This document discusses strategies for meeting the needs of students with disabilities in the general classroom. It defines common terms like ADHD, IEPs, inclusion and assistive technology. It then provides examples of assistive technologies and non-technology supports that can help students with ADHD, auditory disabilities and mild learning disabilities participate and succeed in classroom activities. Sample assistive technologies include audio books, talking calculators and hearing assistive systems. Non-tech supports include preferential seating, graphic organizers and breaking work into chunks.
Young children with disabilities benefit from technologies that promote their participation and development in social and cognitive activities. Students with special needs may qualify for individualized education programs and services through public schools. Parents can work with educators to develop IEPs that set goals and provide support to help students succeed. Students with conditions like ADHD, auditory disabilities, or mild learning disabilities often benefit from explicit instruction and assistive technologies that enhance communication, learning, and independence. Assistive technologies include devices that transmit sound, convert speech to text, allow typing with word prediction, and more to support students' needs.
The document discusses resources and instructional practices for meeting the needs of students with special needs. It provides overviews of different disabilities including ADHD, auditory processing disabilities, and mild learning disabilities. For each, it describes key facts, areas of difficulty, assistive technologies, and modifications that can be made to teaching practices to enhance learning for students with special needs. The overall message is that all students can learn with the right support.
Assistive technology can help students with special needs in the general classroom setting. Various types of disabilities are present in classrooms today, including ADHD, auditory disabilities, and mild learning disabilities. For students with ADHD, assistive technologies like invisible clocks and computer-assisted instruction can help them stay focused. FM units and hearing aids can aid students with auditory needs. And for mild learning disabilities, text-to-speech devices, interactive reading pens, and brainstorming software provide support in reading, writing, and learning. Assistive technologies allow for inclusion of students with special needs in general classrooms as much as possible.

Assistive technology is any item, equipment, or product system that helps individuals with disabilities perform functions that may otherwise be difficult or impossible. There are different types including no-tech, low-tech, and high-tech devices. One advantage of assistive technology is allowing teachers to integrate students with disabilities into inclusive classrooms with non-disabled peers. Another advantage is enabling students with special needs to learn in the least restrictive environment possible with supplementary aids. However, assistive technology faces challenges such as teacher and student attitudes, demands of technology upgrades, access issues due to cost, and ensuring proper student training.
