"The mATch up Tool provides information on low, mid, and high tech devices for meeting the unique needs of students. The tool was designed with a variety of users in mind – teachers, parents, administrators, and in some cases, students themselves. The idea is to provide a handy, ready-access way of gathering information on tools that might help open access to academic and non-academic settings."

 

Discover the tools that support students in reading, writing, communication, organization, etc.

Webinar: Universal Design for Learning and Assistive Technology: What Do They Have in Common?

Webinar: Universal Design for Learning and Assistive Technology: What Do They Have in Common? | UDL - Universal Design for Learning | Scoop.it

On May 18th, authors and educators Kathleen C. Sadao, Ed.D. of the Sacramento County Office of Education and Nancy B. Robinson, Ph.D., CCC-SLP of San Francisco State University will address concerns of special education directors, early childhood interventionists and other administrators related to the implementation, uses and benefits of UDL and AT.

 

"By attending the webinar, participants will learn the basics of UDL implementation and how to incorporate AT tools from the initial phases of classroom design. In addition, presenters will discuss how to apply the AT toolkit concept to specific school and classroom needs, provide examples of how AT tools can provide access to the general education curriculum for students, and help attendees understand the roles of the special educator in promoting the application of AT toolkits for curriculum support."
