IEP Considerations and AT

As a continuation from my last two modules, I will continue talking about AT as it is an essential component for students with disabilities. As UDL learning principles and computer access are very important, the role an AT device plays in the writing process is just as important. 

While an IEP is an important document within a child's educational program, there are many important categories that define and make up a well planned, thought out IEP. In one particular category, the IEP team together must decide whether the student displays a need for AT to achieve the ultimate goal of learning for the student.
