Assistive and Adaptive Technologies by Alix Guillaume EME2040 Professor: Dr. Coleman October 25, 2012
ASSISTIVE AND ADAPTIVE TECHNOLOGY DEFINITION: • Tools in education for students with special needs • Federal and State funded • Hyperlinks videos \\Highd5\nhs\HOME\EDU\GuillaDu\Assistive and Adaptive Technologies PP.pptx \\Highd5\nhs\HOME\EDU\GuillaDu\Assistive Technology in the Classroom - Disability Videos.mht \\Highd5\nhs\HOME\EDU\GuillaDu\Assistive Technology Presentation University of Iowa - Disability Videos.mht \\Highd5\nhs\HOME\EDU\GuillaDu\Assitive Technology on MAC Computer - Disability Videos.mht
PURPOSE OF ASSISTIVE & ADAPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES • Diverse Groups of Learners • ELL (English Language Learners) or ESL (English as a Second Language). • ESE (Autism, Deaf/hard of hearing, Emotional and behavioral disability, Hospital Homebound, Intellectual Disabilities, Physical Impaired, Specific Learning Disability, and Visual Impaired)
Disability Definition: • “…difficulty performing socially expected activities such as work for pay, and explicitly recognizes the interaction of the environment and pathologies/impairments to cause disabilities.” (Cornell University, 2012). • Cognitive: brain impairment • Physical: born or acquired • Linguistic: speech or language barrier
Another Purposes • Multisensory Based Tools (tactile, active, visual, and auditory effects) • Support Different Learning Styles (Kynetic, Visual, Auditive)
