After a decision-making team selects the accessible format(s) that the student needs and has identified where to acquire them, the team considers supports needed for a student to use the accessible materials at school, home, or in the community. It is important to keep in mind that technology is often needed to deliver student-ready, accessible formats. The provision of accessible materials via appropriate technology enables students to develop literacy skills, access information, communicate independently and efficiently, and participate in all educational activities.
