This document discusses assistive technology (AT) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL). It notes that every student on an individualized education program (IEP) must be considered for AT under IDEA. AT refers to devices and services that help students with disabilities increase, maintain, or improve their functional abilities. UDL is based on brain research and involves providing multiple means of engagement, presentation, and expression to reach all learners. The document provides examples of low-tech AT solutions and emphasizes using AT and instructional approaches that remove obstacles to success.
