Assistive Technology Assessment
Competencies
Competencies 1, 2, 7, 9
#1 - Knowledge of school district’s AT assessment procedures.
#2 - Understanding of State and Federal regulations and policies.
#7 - Ability to interpret and present results of AT assessment to IEP teams.
#9 - Collaborate with those in charge of implementing the IEP.
Competency 1: Be knowledgeable about and implement the school district's assistive technology (AT) assessment procedures.
Consider different ways to disseminate information on procedures, including web.When doing training, talk about where procedures are located.Meet with ESE teachers each year. When consulting, training, etc. refer teachers to district procedures. Ongoing revisions; including transition plan, ESY procedures, TAPs……..
Competency 2:Understand federal and state regulations and policies related to the consideration and implementation of assistive technology in Florida schools.
Sign up for paperless from DOE to get TAPS directly.ASHA is excellent source for information.RTS distribute to local teams and to staffing specialists.Trainings are open to Gen Ed Teachers. TAPs disseminated when appropriate.
Competency 7:Interpret and present the results of AT assessments to the IEP teams in a way that supports effective decision-making based on the student, the educational program, and data gathered during the assessment process.
Support via Assessment Tool Kits, LOTTIE kits or commercial kits – train school staff on use.School based teams are being used extensively, but good training is essential.Satellite Labs – make & take, technical assistance, AT tools.Many Tech’s attend IEP meetings when more severe needs are present. Local teams invite LATS and RLATS to attend/participate when indicated.
Competency 9:Collaborate with those in charge of implementing the IEP to formulate and initiate a plan using AT to support the educational achievement of the students.
Implementation part has to be done by school based teams.FDLRS may support by demonstrating model teaching.SKYPE-video conferencing with teachers.Model lessons; asks for data when possible.Follow up modeling with written plan, model again and again, and again and practice, practice, practice!30% assessment, 70% implementation-how we determine if what they are using is effective!Demonstration class
