Present Level of Academic
Achievement and Functional Performance:
- Kelly is in the third grade classroom for most of his day.
- He has a full time paraprofessional who assists him.
- He is unable to use a standard keyboard because of his physical limitations.
- His speech is frequently unintelligible.
- He currently uses single message and multiple message voice output devices, eye gaze, and limited direct selection to complete his academic work.
- Kelly is functioning at about the second grade level in most curricular areas.
Annual Goal:
- Kelly will use an adapted keyboard with custom overlays and a computer with talking word processing to complete all academic work.
Since Kelly has physical
limitations and is unable to use a standard keyboard, an adaptive keyboard (like
the one above) will allow Kelly to type with fewer keystrokes and more control. It can be customized
to fit Kelly's individual needs by sliding different overlays onto the touch
sensitive area depending on the academic work he needs to complete.
