Assistive Technology in Mathematics



Although I have covered many great resources in my previous posts most of the resources were related to reading and/or writing. My following posts will be focused on the content area of mathematics. As a 7th grade math teacher, I am very excited about the AT math resources because I will be able to use these resources every day in my classroom to help MY students who struggle in class. Assistive technology will help students that struggle with organizing, copying, and computing problems involving numbers and other math topics. AT allows visual and audio support to help students succeed in the area of mathematics. There are a variety of graphic organizers, calculators, manipulatives, and worksheets that can be adapted to meet the needs of individual students to support their learning during math lessons. In addition to those great resources there are different levels of AT support that we can give our students ranging from no tech options (extra time, less problems) to high tech options (software, devices). I cannot wait to explore these AMAZING resources with you!
