AT Implementation Resource #2

Making It Work: Effective Implementation of Assistive Technology Guide
The SET site provides a guide for implementing a wide variety of AT effectively for students with special needs. It divides the implementation process into 7 steps and includes samples of specific tools used.

Below are the 7 steps that can be downloaded for free on the site:
  1. Gather Relevant Information
  2. Establish IEP Goals
  3. Conduct AT Trials
  4. Identify AT Solutions
  5. Develop AT Implementation Plan
  6. Adapt Lessons for Technology Integration 
  7. Follow Up and Plan Transition 

Keep in mind that truly successfully AT implementation into a student's school program does not necessarily depend on the device being used, but the careful consideration and attention to all of the implementation steps listed above.
