Assisted Technology

On the Family Center on Technology and Disability website there is a slide show that highlights these assisted technology devices:

Single Word Scanners
Electronic/Large Print Books
Electronic Organizers
Enlarged Worksheets
Talking Clocks
Closed Captioning

Microsoft has listed on their website these assisted technology devices:

Electronic Pointing Devices
Joysticks
Touch Screens
Computer Screen Readers

Enablemart is a website that sells different types of assisted technology devices. A few that I found most interesting are:

Large Print Keyboards
Electronic Note Takers
Text to Speech Software
