Using Technology to Modify Texts and Worksheets for Students with Special Needs

Each year more and more students with cognitive and language delays are made part of fully inclusive settings. Very often assistive technologies play a very important role in their everyday successes, but just as often their teachers struggle to find ways to present text materials to them at the level which is most appropriate for them. In the morning, this presentation will focus on several ways to modify texts to best meet student needs through the use of a variety of mid tech tools and software programs. In the afternoon, we'll go through a variety of software tools for modifying and computerizing tests and worksheets. Programs used in this presentation include Microsoft Word, CoWriter 4000 (topic dictionaries), Adobe Acrobat Standard, OmniForm, IntelliTools (locked worksheet), Test Talker, and the form feature of Word.

Time Requirement: Full day presentation.
