ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY

For students whose learning differences prevent them from achieving success in a traditional classroom environment, technology levels the playing field. 


The use of assistive technology and an array of other ever-present tools help bridge deficits in executive function and language processing, and allow students to learn and explore in a manner consistent with their skills and interests.


The primary goal of assistive technologies is to move the child around the barrier of not being able to read or process language – and give the child access to the printed grade-level material he or she needs to keep up in school, as required by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). 


Assistive technologies do not teach reading or spelling. For that, the child needs structured literacy therapy with a licensed clinician. Assistive technologies do not take the place of direct intervention, but with a clinician’s guidance, they allow children with dyslexia and other language-learning disorders to keep up with their curriculum.
