Assistive Technology Website

I found some new information on the Family Center on Technology & Disability site, http://www.fctd.info/ that you or someone you know may be interested in.

Their recent newsletter has an article about wearable sensors that can assist teachers, parents and therapist in monitoring and responding to arousal levels of children with autism.

In Sept. they will have an online discussion on Inclusion and Assistive Technology.
This week their AT Resources database features Keyboard Options - a module which explains many of the options available for someone who is unable to use a standard keyboard.
They also tell you how to obtain a CD-ROM of their many resources.
They also have a section on AT success stories.
