Assistive Technology and Autism: Access, AAC and Awareness
Presented by Carol Allen, Education Advisor for ICT and Inclusion
Wednesday, September 7, 2022
1:00pm – 2:15pm
Session Description
When considering the role technology plays in the lives of autistic students, we come across a conflict between the huge positives offered and equally, the perceived difficulties and barriers. This lively session, all based on practical experience, will move from the overarching issue of Assistive Technology and its effective implementation for our students through to the vibrancy of student voice, in particular when supported by AAC and the consequent benefits and potential difficulties. Come along, join in and take away ideas to support your own practice.
