| Assessment Strategies – Getting the Information You Need for Individuals with Significant Sensory/ Motor Differences Description: Assessment is too often a ‘product’ based approach rather than a ‘process’ based approach. Assessment strategies used for individuals with significant sensory/motor differences often fail to provide the information needed to guide the AT process. This session will present strategies for gathering the information needed to match the technology to the consumer. |
