WOW! We just started and now we are done. After the first class I felt like my head was spinning from all the new information I had learned; I'm still feeling that way now. I have so much more knowledge about assistive technology for writing and reading.
Today we presented our case studies. Everyone took a different approach and this kept the presentations interesting. Even when we heard presentations about the same technology everyone used the program for different reasons.
My goal while presenting was to get some feedback on possible assistive technology that might work for my student. The technology I used, Dragon Naturally Speaking, was not suitable for my student so I wanted alternative suggestions. It was suggested that I might consider going the route of getting a keyguard. This was a great suggestion and I am anxious to talk to my AT Specialist about trying a keyguard with the student.
With the sun shining and class so close to being finished we needed really interesting presentations and everyone delivered. Thank you to everyone for the engaging presentations.
Happy "end of class" everyone! See you this summer.
