Technology and Visual Impairments
Description:
This course will assist participants in understanding assistive technology to meet the educational needs of children who are blind and visually impaired. The goal is to educate the participants about assessment, acquisition, and implementation of assistive technology to foster academic independence in their students who are blind or visually impaired. In addition, participants will identify the latest and most appropriate technology for the needs of the Pre K-12 child with visual impairments. Legal issues, funding, inclusion of technology on the IEP, and resources for support and training also will be examined.
