VI. Assistive Technology

Understand human, equity and developmental issues surrounding the use of assistive technology to enhance student learning performance and apply that understanding to practice. ** Description: ** Enlarging any type of document for math, reading, and other core subjects. 1. The Document Camera was used to enlarge a graph showing student attendance for the week to be used in lesson on graphs. The Document Camera was used to help a student who is not able to comprehend the "abstract" quality of graphs by having him interpret the visual stimuli found in photos of classmates. The students place a paper square with their initials on it on to the graph in the column for the day of the week to indicate that they are present. After all students check in the graph is used to improve counting skills and graph reading skills. i.e. "What day did the most students attend?" Students who are not able to understand the meaning of the "Attendance Graph" can make choices by indentifying photos of classmates using the Document Camera. **Reflection:** In math I was able to project the "Attendance graph" on to the large screen for all the students to see. This enabled all the students to see the graph at the same time as the teacher is talking about it. The concept of "present" or "absent" was also reinforced by using the Document Camera to project an enlarged image on the screen for the student to identify.
