What's in that Box? Assistive Technology for Students with Significant Disabilities

Have you opened the cabinets in your classroom and found boxes labeled Assistive Technology that look dusty and strange, and you don’t have any idea how to use?  Are you wondering, "what tools do my students need to be successful, exactly?"  Then this workshop is for you!  This is designed to be a practical and interactive session addressing essentials for answering “what’s in that box” and how to use "it" instructionally.
