| Title: | Assistive Technology Decision-Making to Support Students with Disabilities: Helping Teachers Choose the Right Tool for the Right Job |
| Abstract: | Students with disabilities experience challenges when they are insufficiently supported. One solution is the potential of assistive technology to compensate for their educational, daily living and leisure needs. Yet the use of assistive technology is still not widely adopted. Typically, rehabilitation therapists are often tasked to make decisions on the benefits of assistive technology devices. When rehabilitation professionals are unavailable for consultation, the teacher is often the closest professional to the student and the family to offer guidance. Teachers, however, are not always equipped to carry out assistive technology recommendation as they are also unfamiliar with the many devices. This is important since knowledge of a systematic process for identifying and selecting assistive technology increases the likelihood of successful student outcomes. This presentation introduces assistive technology and shares some fundamental questions central to assistive technology selection. |
