Chicago Public Schools (CPS) provides assistive technology devices and services in two areas: (1) Assistive Technology (AT) to access to the curriculum; and (2) Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) for communication support.
The appropriate implementation and use of assistive technologies has the ability to increase abilities and provide greater accessibility to educational opportunities for eligible students with disabilities. Assistive technology devices and services can be used to extend physical, social and communication skills and provide the means for academic inclusion. Many students with disabilities have successfully used assistive technologies to minimize barriers to gain access to a free and appropriate public education (FAPE).
