Summer Technology Institute
Apple’s iPod/iPad touch technology delivers a variety of innovative features that make it easier to use for those who are visually impaired, deaf or hard of hearing or are users with impaired physical or motor skills. These universal access features along with the iPad’s basic technologies that allow the user the ability to record audio, video and run a wide range of applications can really help support students with special needs in the educational setting.
This hands-on workshop will give you the opportunity to work hands-on with iPads. We will explore the iPads basic functions that support all learners, universal access settings and apps that are relevant to helping special needs learners succeed in the classroom. You will also learn about key resources and websites for finding apps, podcasts, books and music and some basics in managing your iPads. Join us for a fun day!
CESA #4 will provide iPads for use during the workhsop.
