All of the students in my classroom have some sort of intellectual disability: some are diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum, some are diagnosed on the Down Syndrome Spectrum. There are a number of evidence-based technology applications that will help my students succeed in the classroom and keep up with their same-age typically developing peers. I would like to use the requested iPads to start using a voice output system to help my non-verbal students communicate with peers and teachers. I would like to get a typing program that can easily be used on an iPad to help students who have limited fine motor skills to write with a typical writing utensil. Every student in general education classroom has their own tablet to work with, so why can't my students have the same access to technology as the same-age, typically developing peers? Especially if it will help them learn.
