The Family Center on Technology and Disability (FCTD) and PACER Center are pleased to announce the release of our new assistive technology awareness series, AT in Action. Funded by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), this fully-captioned video series is designed to strengthen awareness of AT devices that help individuals with disabilities participate fully in school, at home, and in the community. In this third video, you'll meet Mason, a young boy with vision loss who, with the help of AT, is able to learn reading and writing in the same classroom as his sighted peers. We invite you to view and share this video with your colleagues and the families you serve.

What these adaptations can do is phenomenal and inspiring !!! They are windows into the soul of people who otherwise would be basically trapped in a dark cell.

One of the most important things is that he learns to spell English spelling, as grade 2 braille spelling is different. He has a good future.

It would have been very helpful if you posted what the devices being used in this video were. It was frustrating trying to understand what the specialist was saying in regards to the device's names.

@fangettes 4 года назад

Yes, it was very difficult to understand what she was saying. After some Google-ing, I have discovered that it is called a Mountbatten Brailler

Most videos that discuss accommodations for disabilities have proper captions. so if you're curious, this video's CC mentions the name of the devices (just writing this here in case if you were curious/this type of situation crops up again!)
