Training Assistive Technology in the Environment (TATE) - 1 views

  •  
    "The use of Participatory Action Research (PAR) during the project ensures that TATE SIP is informed by stakeholder input throughout the development and evaluation phases. Outcome measures will include evaluation of device use (device skill acquisition), device usability (skills used in targeted environments), functional performance (activities of daily living affected by device use), quality of life (subjective well-being) and social participation (community integration). To ensure the TATE SIP reaches its intended audiences-survivors of TBI and the individuals who will train them to use ATC-we are working with a national group of researchers, practitioners, consumers, and advocacy organizations to support recruitment and dissemination activities.

    Gayl Bowser's blog We'll talk about implementation planning in the fall as well as other aspects of starting a school year with assistive technology. In the winter we will focus on functional use of AT and the development of new AT skills. In the spring, we will begin planning for transitions and summer use of AT outside of the school setting. We will share resources, ideas and strategies. This is an invitation for you to have a dialog with me. I am hoping that you and I can share our experiences and ideas about supporting assistive technology services throughout the school "seasons".
