This project is designed to address needs of children with severe communication and behavior needs. The purpose of this project is to examine the interaction of the Intellikeys technology and SmartBoard technologies with the identified student population and its impact on the development of communication for students
Assistive Technologies:
- Intellitools Classroom Suite
- Intellikeys
- Intellikeys Overlay
- SMART Board
Schools involved in project:
- Chinook Park Elementary – Area V
- Brentwood Elementary – Area I
Interviews were conducted with Teachers and Educational Assistants involved in the project at Chinook Park Elementary and Brentwood Elementary Schools during the 2007/2008 school year.
Classroom observations and recordings of the interviews provide a snapshot of the positive changes and some of the challenges encountered in implementing the Assistive Technology and Communications Project at these two sites
