There are many more products, for cost or free, on the PC side than on the Mac side, this blog is devoted to AT on Mac OS X. May be a resource for keeping current with new products and development on this platform.
This list of bookmarks has been put togetther by Karen Janowski, she is a proliferative blogger who seems to have a deep understanding AT and the current issues. Instead of "recreating the wheel" I thought I would post her del.icio.us list on our Diigo site. Nothing like cross referencing.
I have recommended this site before. In the past it provided a comprehensive comparison of math and reading programs. Now the site has been updated to include new programs, new ways of examining features and now includes writing and AT tools.
This is the website for the Free Resources from the Net for (Special) Education session that I went to this morning. It has a ton of free stuff. Click on the "SoftwareFor.org" at the top. There is also a handout that should be posted on the Closing the Gap website. They ran out and I didn't get one. It listed the various sites.
The description offered by the QIAT author states " A VERY 'easy to use' web service. Send voice emails to a select group - people who are signed up in your specific group. A 'safe' and easy way for students to send and receive voice emails. Yack Pack is ideal for many lower cognitive functioning students. It is a CLOSED voice email system. This means that only people who are part of the 'group' on yackpack can receive or send voice email to each other. The icons are large and simple to use. Large, clear buttons for record, play and send. Images of people in the group can be shown on the screen. This is an amazing site for our students. It almost looks as if it was designed for the special needs of students at a lower cognitive functioning level. "
This is the website that David Davis from Florida shared at Closing the Gap. It has a ton of stuff for math. Somewhere there is a on screen protractor.
This is from the state of Utah. There are recommendations for keyboarding programs, expectations for different grade levels, and instructional suggestions.
Website for the high incidence accessible technology team at the Montgomery County School District in MD. Offers links to sites on a variety of tech ideas for literacy, math, science, and social studies. Links deal with assistive tech for students with high incident disabilities.
Came across this website while reviewing links recommended during the QIAT discussion thread on sound files. When I looked at it I found that this blog addressed many more topics than sound files. It is a difficult site to explain but please take a look.
