May 9

This week our class featured three presentations focused on Assistive Technology Assessment Models.  We were all asked to prepare a power point presentation describing four models and three of my classmates presented their power points for the class.

The four I choose were:

The SETT Framework http://www.joyzabala.com/
Education Tech Points http://www.educationtechpoints.org/
The Chambers' Consideration Model
The HAAT Model http://www.teachingat.info/constructs/human.html

All models had their individual approach, but all four involved a team approach that takes into account the needs of the student, the strengths of the student and the environment where the student is functioning.  It is important for the appropriate technology to be matched with the student and the process should include periodic reviews to ensure the technology is still appropriate.
