Watch This…<br />
Enabling Dreams<br />
To see just how important <strong>as</strong>sistive technology can be<br />
for those with disabilities, watch the Edutopia video<br />
entitled “Enabling Dreams”.<br />
In this video, you’ll meet several students who, with<br />
hard work, determination, and the support of their<br />
teams, have used <strong>as</strong>sistive technology to reach their<br />
individual potentials. These stories help you see that<br />
AT implementation is a long but rewarding experience.<br />

If this link does not work for you – go to YouTube (www.youtube.com) and type “Enabling<br />
Dreams” in the search field to find the video.<br />
My thoughts after viewing the video…<br />
I would encourage others on my team to watch this video…<br />
Definitely! Maybe Probably not<br />

Think about this…<br />
Think about your own school or team situation – refer to the conditions described in the<br />
presentation and look at how each supports OR acts <strong>as</strong> a barrier to AT implementation with<br />
students.<br />

Module 3 Final Activity<br />
Seven Steps to Success!<br />
Think about your role on the school b<strong>as</strong>ed team and how you will support the seven steps<br />
for effective AT implementation. Think about specific t<strong>as</strong>ks in each step – for example, in<br />
the first step “Gather Information”, will you actually collect information about the student and<br />
environment or will you provide the necessary forms for the team members to use? Be<br />
specific about what you will do…<br />
Step Description My Role<br />
Gather relevant information<br />
Establish IEP goals<br />
Conduct AT trials<br />
Identify AT solution<br />
Develop Implementation Plan<br />
Adapt lessons for AT integration<br />
Follow up and plan transition<br />
