For the Closing the Gap Conference, I created iPod touch app tutorials. They were made for participants to learn apps during hands-on portions of lab sessions. The tutorials include the following apps: Percentally, TapSpeak Button, StoryKit, iReward, iWriteWords, and ArtikPix. I have to say thanks to Assistiveware for making the really cool templates that I used.
