For this assignment you will be completing a web-based training on assistive technology or AT. The learning objectives for the web-training are:
Describe assistive technology interventions to promote children’s access to and participation in inclusive settings.
Use a decision-making process to help integrate various sources of evidence and determine whether assistive technology interventions are appropriate for use within a specific context.
The objective of this Key Assessment is to help you learn more about how to help a child participate more fully in an inclusive setting through assistive technology interventions.
To access the training for Connect Module: Assistive Technology click on the following link: https://connectmodules.dec-sped.org/connect-modules/learners/module-5/
Once you are in the module click on the blue “Begin Module” arrow to start your training.
Any words that are highlighted in blue, underlined, italicized print, are vocabulary words. Click on these words to find the definition of the word.
Be sure to view the module through all the steps in sequence, watch all of the videos and complete all of the web activities as you go.
Use information from the module to complete all of the activities.
In the Additional Resource section you will find all the documents that need to be turned in for the Key Assessment. Type your answers on the provided documents. Submit all of the documents at the same time. Trying to submit one document at a time will not be successful.
If your child has a learning disability, he or she may benefit from assistive technology tools that play to their strengths and work around their challenges. Assistive technology (AT) can be an effective accommodation for children with learning and attention issues. Understanding what AT is and how it works is the first step toward finding the right tools for your child. Text-to-speech (TTS) is a type of assistive technology that reads digital text aloud. It’s sometimes called “read aloud” technology. TTS can take words on a computer or other digital device and convert them into audio. TTS is very helpful for kids who struggle with reading, but it can also help kids with writing and editing, and even focusing.
a. The average rating for all CBC movies is 7.2, ABN movies is 8.3, and BBS movies is 6.3 (see bar chart below). b. Descriptive Statistics for Ratings of Networks: CBC | ABN | BBS Mean: 7.2 | 8.3 | 6.3 Median: 7 | 8 | 6 Mode: 7| 9| 5 Standard Deviation: 1.862 | 0.908| 1.544 c. From the descriptive statistics, we can see that the mean ratings for all three networks are fairly close in value, with the highest being ABN’s mean rating at 8.3 and the lowest being BBS’ mean rating at 6.3; however, looking further into metrics such as standard deviation and mode show that CBC’s ratings have a higher degree of variability compared to the other two networks (1.86 vs 0-0 .908 and 1-544 respectively). This could indicate that while CBC’s movies may be more hit or miss in terms of quality than either ABN’s or BBS’, they also have more potential to become big hits if done right – something which would benefit both audiences and investors alike as it could lead to greater returns on investments in these films..
