Assistive technology (AT) can help students who struggle with the mechanical and cognitive aspects of writing to produce text that is more readable, organized, and expressive. This class shows parents and teachers how to apply a variety of AT to writing issues such as generating and organizing ideas, spelling and grammar, finding the right words, editing, producing written text, and writing speed. Includes live demonstrations, examples, and a comprehensive handout.
