This document is an overview of a module that discusses how to support the transition process of individuals that use Assistive Technology. It has slides from a presentation that review the transition process, set up for someone who would be facilitating a workshop. The page is helpful because it breaks down the transition process, which is something that can be used as a refresher for those of us who are special educators in the lower grades that do not deal with transitions. The page also discusses how assistive technology is needed for individuals, and when it is appropriate to include in the transition process.
