According to Rocky View Schools, "Assistive Technology for Learning (ATL) is the devices, media and services used in learning environments to overcome barriers for students with physical, sensory, cognitive, speech, learning or behavioural special needs to actively engage in learning and to achieve their individual learning goals. The primary goal of ATL is to support all students, including those with special needs, in achieving the learning outcomes of the curriculum or their individual learning goals.  ATL is directly related to the delivery of learning outcomes in the Alberta programs of study."
