Assistive Technology & the IEP
ADAP (Alabama Disability Advocacy Program) polled parents in September 2012 to determine if Assistive Technology (AT) was being appropriately addressed through
the IEP process. Results indicated that many parents were unaware that
AT was required to be considered and how it could be implemented.
As Alabama's state AT program and the federal tech act program, one
of STAR's goals is to provide training on legislation, including IDEA
which requires schools to provide AT devices and services to maximize
accessibility for children with disabilities.
STAR collaborates with T.A.S.C. (Technology Assistance for Special Consumers) to provide onsite and virtual trainings.
