Introduction to Assistive Technology

This video is produced by the Don Johnson Empire, and it is called “The case against assistive technology”. Of course, it doesn’t present a case against assistive technologies, but instead looks at the assumptions stopping schools from using technology. Although it does not apply specifically to the writing process, it does demonstrate the direction in which we are moving, and gives us a glimpse into the future. This is a must see for anyone who is reluctant to incorporate assistive technology into their classroom.


This link is an hour long webinar on Integrating Assistive Technology Writing Tools. It is presented by an assistive technology consultant and program director and it discusses assistive technology for writing, and discussing how to integrate and implement these processes into the classroom integration.
