This course has allowed me to re-think my vision of accessibility. From our first class with a message of assuming ability in our students I have re-thought how I approach students with special needs in my school. When I think of the ways ipod touches, ipads and the variety of apps including proloquo2go, dragon naturally speaking can change the way students with all level of ability can learn in our schools I am amazed and inspired. When I consider all of the "low tech" options that the class created and demonstrated I am excited to apply these low tech and low cost options out at school. Examining switches and Boardmaker Plus! to increase accessibility for students to access learning and truly show the world their abilities. As we finish off and I re-connect this all back to my experience with swimmers with a disability I have come full circle.
An inspirational course!
