Assistive technology can provide both routine and customized access to the
general curricula for students with disabilities allowing them to participate in the daily functions of the classroom.
Assistive technology has the potential to augment abilities and, bypass or
compensate for barriers that disabilities create (Lewis, 1994). This and
following modules address the potential of assistive technologies as they relate
to specific disabilities and life tasks. For children with disabilities in
public school classrooms, assistive technologies are their tools to extend their
physical, social and communicative abilities. They also provide the means for
academic and cooperative inclusion.
