It can be challenging to find apps for students who have significant developmental delays, significant motor developmental impairments or multiple disabilities and find apps that are appropriate to meet their unique needs. They can have sensory, motor, neurological or medical issues that can make it difficult for them to access a mobile device. This webinar will focus on alternate ways to access a mobile device, such as switches, pointers, mounting systems, etc. We will cover device features and apps that can be used to support students with significant needs, such as cause and effect, communication, literacy, entertainment and more.
PRESENTER: MARK COPPIN, B.S., is an Apple Distinguished Educator and the Director of Assistive Technology, Anne Carlsen Center for Children, Jamestown, ND.

iTechnology
(iPads, iPods, iPhones) can be highly motivating tools that, by design,
remarkably address the unique learning style of students with ASD. This
fast-paced webinar will provide an overview of various apps that can be
customized to meet the learning and behavior needs of students with ASD and,
most importantly, to increase their independent functioning for
self-regulation. Apps that use the evidence-based practice for self-regulation
to teach students with ASD how to recognize signs of increased anxiety and
subsequent strategies for relaxation and stress management will be shared.
Participants
should have a general knowledge of iTechnology device "basics",
including accessories and access tools, for making these systems user friendly
for both students and adults.
