My Journey
Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing
                 Arthur Ashe
AHA!!!
I have learned so many things this week. 
I think the most important is becoming
empowered to keep trying and 'playing'
with software until it works.  In the past
I often gave up in frustration, probably
one or two clicks away from success. 

Thank you so much to Maureen and Paul
for being here to respond to many
questions with patience and expertise!
I have been informed on many levels, which I plan
to both use and extend in my new position as a
Secondary IST this September. 

 This means:
 •Engaging students with relevant, exciting
 technology options (UDL!)

 •Using my WIKI links for and with students

 •Giving students who say ‘I hate Kurzweil’
 other options

 •Working through the tutorials for Kurzweil,
 Natural Reader, Word Talk, Clickspeak and
 accessible books. At least now I can do this!!
The Guiding Principle:


Make learning accessible
for all!
 This is what UDL can do for all students,
 regardless of where they are starting
 from. My new knowledge can make this
 happen in my classroom and my school.
Taking the UDL message further:

In my school:                Beyond my school:
• Sharing with colleagues,   • Sharing with colleagues
  especially by showing
  how the tools benefit
                               at other schools
  students                   • Developing a link with
• Giving parents new           other staff I met here,
  options                      to share, ask questions,
• Adding what I can to         explore other ways of
  the School Based Team        ‘doing things’
• Working with the IT        • Being a voice for UDL at
  tech
                               the district level
Programs, progams, programs!
                 Kurzweil


Tools to make a difference:
   UDL                         Clickspeak
         Multimedia
                            WordTalk
   SETBC
                 Visual Tools
A final thought:

We must get beyond
textbooks, go out into the
bypaths... and tell the
world the glories of our
journey.         John Hope Franklin
