Assistive Technology Resource 2


This post introduces another assistive technology resource that offers modules concerning different areas of implementing AT.   It is loaded with information and it is worth the visit.
Assistive Technology in Texas Schools Series
 
 
Each module in the Assistive Technology in Texas Schools Series was designed for use by regional education service centers and district staff responsible for assistive technology (AT) capacity-building in the state of Texas. The modules can be used to build knowledge and skills in AT service delivery at various levels throughout the state education system. The content of each module directly supports the legal mandate of IDEA 2004 that requires that AT devices and services be provided to a student with disabilities if required as a part of the student’s Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE).

These modules can also be used as a self-study tool for those wishing to gain more knowledge of assistive technology in the various areas such as: reading, writing, legal, implementation, evaluation, administration, and consideration modules. 

 

This website is a great resource that offers a wealth of information that is easy to understand and can be easily accessed.  I recommend that you take the time to visit this site if you have questions concerning AT implementation.
