The final installment of our day, Breakout Session B, is about to begin! Thank you to everyone who attended and made today's Institute a success. #MATN18

Outreach with IT: Are #AT tools available across classrooms? Are AT strategies built into online curriculum? #AssistiveTechnology #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

Outreach is seeing your team in the context of a larger system, analyzing your role to problem solve larger systems issues, moving out of your comfort zone... #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

Student Outcome Questions: Where all, some, or none of their #AT strategies ineffective? Then branch off to ask more specific questions about why this answer was provided. #AssistiveTechnology #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

Data on #AT services should be tracked at the end of each school year and can include the reasons for the request for support, the tools used, and the services provided. #AssistiveTechnology #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

How do you document and record what you do as an #AT specialist? #MATN18 #AssistiveTechnology

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

Thanks, Tracy! https://t.co/Yg0wMmbWiV

A wall of what our #AssistiveTechnology providers are doing for students throughout #Maryland and beyond! #AT #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

Our attendees ponder @denisedecoste's prompt: "What are you doing as #AT Providers in your school or school district?" #AssistiveTechnology #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

The line between instructional and #AssistiveTechnology, as well as the population of students who can accesses these, continues to blur. @denisedecoste #MATN18

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

View #AssistiveTechnology less as a novelty and more as an everyday tool. Consider #AT features in mainstream tools, such as Google Speak, Grammerly, note taking tools, word prediction on phones, etc. #MATN18 #Keynote #AT @denisedecoste

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

We need to get beyond the "Concierge" approach to #AssistiveTechnology, the "one referral at a time" approach, and "one size fits all" service models. Build the capacity of school teams to address tools that support more students. -@denisedecoste #MATN18 #AT

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

There is a large population of students who can benefit from #AT, including ELL, students in poverty, and disengaged students). #MATN #AssistiveTechnology @denisedecoste

[MATN @TheMATNOnline]

These initiatives are challenging both general and special educators' roles - #AssistiveTechnology #AT is increasingly more integrated into special education services. #MATN18
