Assistive Technology at George Bissett Elementary School

Every student comes to us with different strengths and challenges. It’s up to us to find ways to ensure that we are providing a high quality education for every one of those students, every single day. Assistive technology is one of the tools that our Student Services team uses to provide the right learning opportunities for students with special needs. Discovering what it might look like takes innovation and collaboration with a student’s family, his or her health teams and our partners.
Here’s an example of an innovative use of technology that is allowing T’onia, a Grade 2 student at George Bissett Elementary School, to engage in the curriculum and interact with her peers in ways she couldn’t otherwise.

This video presented hard situations...the technology really can be positive tools for them! The unhappier is when we can see a reality where people with healthy who use techonology but development mental disorders because this, that is in this case technology could be considerated a kind of "gun". I think it depends how you use technology, how much time, in what kind of situations we use technologies etc. But the true is techonolgy is just a tool, and we can choose what can we do with it.
