It's time to go back to the basics, to review what it means to "consider" assistive technology for every student on an IEP as the law requires. Here is an excellent resource, and eighteen page document on the qiat.org website (Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology Services.) It includes things like:
Quality Indicators for Consideration of AT needs
Quality Indicators for Assessment of AT needs
Quality Indicators for Including AT in the IEP
Quality Indicators for AT implementation
Quality Indicators for Evaluation of the Effectiveness of AT
Quality Indicators for AT Transition
Quality Indicators for Adminstrative Support of AT services
and Quality Indicators for Professional Development and Training in AT
Something else this document includes is a listings of common errors in each area which helps teams to better understand AT consideration, provision, implementation and training. This is for anyone who is interested in any facet of effective special education.
