Description

Assistive Technology for Young Children: A Guide to Creating Inclusive Learning Environments. This practical resource provides early childhood professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to harness the power of assistive technology (AT) in creating inclusive learning environments for young children. Developed by two leading experts, this book demystifies AT and offers solutions that can be implemented right away, regardless of technical experience. You'll learn about a range of AT supports for children with disabilities, from low-cost, low-tech options to higher tech tools like speech-generating software. The guide also covers how to select, purchase, and implement AT devices, determine funding options, assess children's needs, and involve family members in the process. A CD-ROM is included to support your learning journey. By following this book's guidance, you'll be able to increase opportunities for play, support motor, cognitive, and social skills, teach computer skills, and promote communication, language development, and early literacy skills.
