"Engage switch users with Video. Choose a video from YouTube and using the web apps below convert the video into a switch accessible educational activity. Almost all videos can be made switch accessible, however some videos will only play on their YouTube Channel. If one does not play try another - there are many to choose from!

"After using Priory Woods videos with students I felt that they could be improved by making them stop after a few seconds and getting the student to press their mouse or switch to continue.

"Graham's review of the research doesn't resolve the age-old debate of whether students learn writing best naturally - just by doing it - or through explicit writing instruction. But there are effective practices where the research is unequivocal. Distressingly, many teachers aren't using them. "We have confirmation of things we know that work, but are not applied in the classroom," said Graham."
