SUMMARY:Assistive Technology (AT): Many Possibilities to Consider
DESCRIPTION:Assistive Technology (AT) encompasses many possibilities when you look beyond AAC/communication. Wilton Library hosts Alescia Ford\, MS\, OTR/L\, ATP\, while she breaks down the three critical components of educational design: Universal Design for Learning\, Educational Technology\, and Assistive Technology. She discusses assistive technologies to enable participation\, improve curricular access (math\, reading\, writing\, executive functioning)\, and support inclusion. She also explains what AT looks like (from low-tech\, mid-tech\, to high-tech)\, when more is needed (consultation and evaluations)\, how to include AT in the IEP\, and why implementation planning is so important. \nFord is a certified occupational therapist and a nationally certified assistive technology practitioner. She evaluates students’ needs for AT; trains students\, educators\, and parents on implementation plans; develops district-wide competencies for AT processes; and consults on literacy support programming\, accessibility and Universal Design for Learning guiding principles. She owns Adapt & Learn\, a pediatric therapy service provider with clinic locations in Simsbury and Farmington. \nRegister for this free\, in-person presentation. \n
