This session explores the transformative power of assistive technology (AT) in creating
inclusive, equitable classrooms for students with diverse learning needs. Participants will gain
actionable insights into integrating innovative AT tools and strategies into their instructional
practices, empowering all students, including those with visual impairments, to thrive
academically and socially. By attending, educators will:
1. Learn how to evaluate and select AT tools that align with their students' needs and
curriculum goals.
2. Discover innovative ways to incorporate AT into daily instruction, including practical
examples of braille displays, screen readers, and voice recognition software.
3. Explore best practices for fostering collaboration between general educators, special
educators, and families to implement AT successfully.
Attendees will leave with a toolkit of resources and strategies to immediately enhance inclusivity
and engagement in their schools or organizations. The session is designed to be interactive,
incorporating case studies, live demonstrations, and opportunities for collaborative discussion to
ensure participants can implement what they learn effectively.
