1. Good Spirit School Division Assistive Technology Planning
March 6th, 2011
Agenda
1. Brief Overview of Ministry of Education Assistive Technology Project
a. Divisions Involved to Date
b. Definition of Assistive Technology
c. Division Planning for Assistive Technology
d. Student Specific Assistive Technology Collaborative Assessment Process
e. Brief Review of Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology
2. Review & Participation in Division Planning Protocol
a. To begin, we will review the 12 Categories of AT and collaboratively
prioritize 1-2 Categories of Assistive Technology (i.e. Reading or Math)
b. As a team, we can then brainstorm tools we presently use or hope to
employ in the division. Following this brainstorming, we can classify these
tools as low technology, mid-technology and high technology strategies
to support student learning in the areas selected (i.e. Reading or Math)
c. As a team, we will then prioritize and discuss what should be available
universally, to a targeted group of individuals and on an individual basis.
d. Following this discussion, we can then plan for infrastructure requirements,
licensing and hardware issues/needs, and how support/training will be
offered to support the access and use of these tools/strategies (please see
next page)
