Information and resources on assistive technology specifically related to writing.

link to writing support option from writer learning. Word processor w/ translation and text to speech etc. Affordable option in lieu of laptops, notebooks and/or tablets. Have found that many of my students on the Autism Spectrum LOOOVE their technology so much (ex; ipads, laptops..) & that they are so good at using it, that it turns into a power struggle. No matter how much security, blocks, etc you put on the device, they often find a way to quickly get out of their "work" and flit around on the internet etc. :) sometimes these WP systems are a good solution to get the writing tasks done legibly & timely. :)
