For more course tutorials visit www.uophelp.com Focus of the Final Project Over the past six weeks, you have learned about several disabilities and how they impact a student’s learning experience. For the final project, you will be asked to respond to several case studies. Each of these case studies involves a specific disability and a unique set of issues for each of the identified students. Your assignment is to respond uniquely to each of the scenarios. Your responses should include the following elements: § Identification of the specific academic/behavioral issues that could be addressed through assistive technology § Identification of at least three assistive technologies that will address the academic/behavioral needs of each student § An overview of how each of the identified assistive technologies will be implemented for the student. § A discussion of anticipated results based upon the use of the assistive technologies for each of the case studies. § Responses must be supported with evidence from the text and at least two additional scholarly resources. Case Study #1 Emily is a five-year-old female student who is visually impaired. Emily has low vision and has some independence. She is able to see letters and numbers with amplification. In the past, Emily has been enrolled in a Head Start class with typical peers. Emily experienced great success in her preschool classroom. She had access to assistive technology that assisted her in participating in most activities within the class. Emily will be starting kindergarten in the fall. She will be in a general education class with typical peers. Emily’s parents, and her IEP team, expect her to be fully included in most activities. Please describe assistive technologies that will allow Emily to have access to grade level content and to participate with her peers in the classroom.
