🎉Today we're celebrating a big milestone—it's our 200th episode! 🎉

This March, we're exploring the important, but sometimes confusing, topic of Assistive Technology in education. Today we cover the basics of assistive technology—what it is, why it can seem confusing, who’s responsible for it and how we can better address it in our IEPs.

Listen in as we:

• Breakdown the definition of AT to more easily understand it
• Discuss examples in our own everyday lives
• Clarify why AT can seem confusing and how it integrates into the educational system
• Review the legal obligations of including AT in IEPs

We also focus on emphasizing a TEAM-approach for deciding on and implementing AT that involves general and special educators, the student, parents and building administrators.

When we know better...we do better!

I think you'll find a nugget or two in this special episode on Assistive Technology.

Remember, the process of integrating AT isn’t just about adding technology into an IEP; it's about creating an inclusive, supportive framework that adapts to the unique needs of each student. It’s about making sure every voice at the table is heard in the decision-making process and to continuously advocate for resources and training that enhances the implementation of the AT plan.

Writing individual impact statements based on a student’s unique disability  and needs can be a big struggle AND a big time suck.! And in case you haven't noticed...extra time is not something you have a lot of.

My IEP Impact Statements Growing Bundle will give you  the resources you need to make writing impact statements a breeze.
