SET-BC Access Roadshow
An Overview of Alternative Access Options SET-BC presented an overview of the technology access options that are currently available for students with special needs. During this hands-on workshop, participants had the opportunity to learn about keyboard options, mouse alternatives, word prediction, and switch/scanning input methods. As participants explored the range of products, case studies were used to illustrate the process of matching student needs to technology features. |

Presented in 8 B.C. sites during April and May, the full day workshop brought
timely information to teachers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists,
and speech language pathologists working with students who require adaptive
access to read, write, and/or operate environmental controls for everything
from computers to toys to tv's. For more information, download the Access Technologies 2002 pdf.
Here are a few comments from the workshop: "A great opportunity to see and try out many alternatives in one fell swoop." "Excellent multi-sensory teaching tool! Just what I needed to broaden my understanding in this area." "This was very helpful. This is my first workshop and I have gained a lot of info that will help our kids." |
