Assistive Technology for People With Disabilities

This new book provides a lifespan and multidisciplinary approach to a discussion of the use of current technology in the fields of special education, rehabilitation, speech-language pathology, and other disciplines.

The text reflects the authors' years of experience teaching both K-12 students and adults, as well as their own framework for understanding assistive technology application and integrating technology into instruction.

Chapters include information about assistive technology that promotes knowledge and skills, and activities are dispersed throughout the book to keep students engaged and to make concrete the practical applications and opportunities that good technology provides for persons with disabilities.
