Tech Tea Time: Using Standard Video Magnifiers to Build Custom Solutions
Open Captioned. Whether your student wants “everything, everywhere, all at once” or is “too cool for school,” this session will help you think outside the box to meet your students’ needs. You know those techie kids who want their assistive technology (AT) to perform everything, everywhere, all at once? There are all-in-one solutions that will allow one device to meet multiple needs in various locations with numerous options for varying task demands. On the other hand, we have all seen students who are too cool for school. These kids panic and refuse to learn and use new assistive technology devices, We will discuss non-conventional and unique ideas to allow students to use the same devices as their classmates use while having access to the adaptations they greatly need. We will present options for students on both ends of the spectrum and illustrate how engineers worldwide are pushing the limits of software and hardware to transform assistive technology. Finally, we will share about the technology explosion coming as AT meets AI. Educators are in a wonderful position to influence designers and engineers as they incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) into AT. Educators can provide input to leverage the power of AI while maintaining the security necessary in the educational environment.
