Current Trends in Assistive Technology for K-12 Settings - Webinar - Sep 5, 2013 - 0 views

Register for this webinar
What:
Explore the current issues and trends surrounding assistive technology devices and service for public schools and districts. Current technology-related issues are catching the attention of many state and local education agencies with the development of operational guidelines surrounding implementation and development of technology in general. Assistive technology tools, devices and services have been interwoven into the fabric of least restrictive environment (LRE) to afford access to the general curriculum and instructional materials for our special needs students for many years (since IDEA 2004). However, with the onset of "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) or "Bring Your Own Technology" (BYOT) in addition to mobile technologies being used by all school personnel, district operational guidelines are blurring the line of assistive and instructional technology.

Assistive Technology | Tips for Child LD - NCLD - 0 views
-
Students with learning disabilities (LD) may struggle with schoolwork in many different areas. While most are likely to have trouble with reading, others may have issues with math, memory, organization, or writing. Assistive technology (AT) can be a great way to minimize the extent to which they need to ask for help and to enable them to be more independent learners. Assistive technology (sometimes referred to as "adaptive technology") is a general term that describes the types of tools and devices that assist people to achieve greater independence. For individuals with LD, assistive technology can include such things as scanners and screen reading software, voice recognition software, calculators, highlighting and note-taking programs, electronic/digital organizers, and much more.

November 12th - Implementing AAC in the Classroom with Kelly Fonner, Consultant, Fonner Consulting & Training OVERVIEW: Challenges are often met when introducing AAC systems from the clinical or
"speech-room" setting into the busy environment of the classroom. The "real-world" of
communication does not always play out easily for the student using AAC. Whether they are using
lo-tech or hi-tech systems there are strategies that can assist staff and families in bringing AAC into
the school day. During this webinar you will learn to evaluate the AAC-using student's day by
communication contexts and reevaluate the possibilities of how your student can more effectively
communicate, learn vocabulary or communication strategies during the typical activities of their
school day.

Webinar: From Research to Real Life-Increasing Visibility and Use of Family-to-Family Centers December 3, 2012-1pm (Mountain)
Call-in: 866/214-9397, Pin: 5058724774
Webinar Link: https://www.livemeeting.com/cc/familyvoices/join?id=24R5TP&role=attend
The Family Voices National Center for Family and Professional Partnerships is hosting this webinar presented by Suzanne M. Bronheim, PhD of Georgetown University Center for Child and Human Development. Suzanne will share findings from a 2010 research partnership with three Family-to-Family Health Information Centers (F2F HICs) to better understand how Hispanic/Latino families' and African American families' utilization of F2F HICs might be increased. This research project is based on a social marketing theory that suggests that people try new things if that "innovation" fits with their values and experience, seems to have an advantage over other approaches, is easy to use, can be tried and dropped if they don't like it and if others they know and trust are also aware of it and have used it. The project has used this framework to study how Hispanic/Latino and African American families prefer to receive information and how they view the F2F HICs as a resource. In addition, this project has studied similar issues for the social networks of families to learn how they view and access F2F HICs. Suzanne will be joined by staff of the F2F HICs that partnered in this project to share lessons learned and suggestions of how other F2F HICs can use this framework.

Emerging Professional Development Trends for Assistive Technology - Webinar - Aug. 28, ... - 0 views
-
Click here to register for this webinar What:
Finding appropriate Assistive Technology supports for students with disabilities is only half the battle. Once this critical step is complete, the process of training and support for the student (and those working with the student) begins. Unfortunately, due to time and other constraints, training on implementation is rarely reached, which is likely one of the reasons we see such high levels of AT abandonment across the country. During this session the presenter will discuss emerging trends and practical tips for providing effective professional development and support to those that use (and support the use of) Assistive Technology. Learning Objectives: Identify at least 3 no or low cost synchronous (real time) solutions for providing AT training and support. Identify at least 3 no or low cost asynchronous (available 24/7) solutions for providing AT training and support. Describe many of the barriers that hinder the implementation of AT. When:
