In
today’s article we talk about Technology helping Children with special needs.
Educations for students with disabilities are not only involved with one on one
teaching, but they are now in the classroom with regular students. Assistive
technology has made it possible where all children can participate. Assistive technology is a federally mandated
service and equipment for students with disabilities. This can be from
triangular Pencil grip, a talking calculator, a large computer monitor, or a
voice amplifier. This came to existence because the 1997 federal law called
Disabilities Education Act. This act states that school districts must provide
technology to students who not only need it, but qualify for it to have a free,
appropriate public education. Another
option that is now open in schools is older Students who are licensed can help
the students who need help that are students with disabilities. Now with
technology parent-teacher communication can become easier to help the
children’s need.
Reflection in my
Classroom
The light bulb moment with I had with
this article there are many ways to help students with the help they need. When
a student is struggling try to help the students as much as possible. What ever
exceptionality they may have I need to do my best to meet that need. In order
to help the students succeed. I must
work closely with the Special Education teacher to help the student in their
work. I must know how all the technology works and be familiar with it to help
the child succeed. My goal is not to separate
them, but work together for the greater good of learning of the students.
