This document provides a starting point for teams to identify potential assistive technology Asolutions within specific areas of the curriculum. he assistive technology devices listed in this document are included to provide examples of different types of assistive devices which may be required in order for students with disabilities to access a free and appropriate public education. This document does not include all assistive technology devices within each category and inclusion of a particular device does not Tconstitute endorsement by the Arizona Department of Education. This guide is not prescriptive; the IEP team must identify potential tasks and solutions for each student individually, using a framework that considers the student, the environment and the tasks. </p><p>Additional devices may be added to the document by emailing your suggestions to [email protected]. Many of the items referenced in this guide area are available for checkout from the Arizona Department of Education/Exceptional Student Services’ AT Loan Library. FAQs about the loan program as well as copies of the forms needed to join and check out devices can be found at the back of this resource guide.
