Webinar Wednesdays: Assistive Technology for Math Issues

This past Monday, Jamie Martin (@ATdyslexia), assistive technology consultant and trainer, presented the webinar "Assistive Technology for Math Issues" hosted by Understood.org. The focus on the webinar was to discuss various assistive technology tools to address mathematic difficulties, with specific discussions on dyscalculia. If your own child or students experience mathematical difficulties that go beyond the normal "struggles" all students encounter, then this may be the right webinar for you to partake in. For more information about dyscalculia you can view my previous post "Demystifying the 4 D's".

If you weren't able to catch the webinar live, below you will find the recorded webinar. Also, be sure to visit Understood.org's site to learn more about dyscalculia and other assistive technology tools to support struggling learners.

Using Assistive Technology for Math and Science


Edutopia's 5-Minute Film Festival: The Power of Assistive Technology highlights the benefits of the utilization of Assistive Technology in the educational setting. Often times much of the focus falls on supports for reading and writing. However, the need for support does not end with reading and math, and students often require additional support in Math and Science. The video featured below focuses on successful strategies for applying AT for both Math and Science. Click to access the original video.
