Assistive Technology (AT) in education is any item that supports a student's ability to access their curriculum. AT can be as simple as a pencil grip and as complex as multi-layered computer system. AT may provide a student with access to books in a digital format, the ability to have word prediction, as well as speech-to-text and text-to-speech capabilities. AT in education helps to level the playing field so that all students have access to a robust learning environment.
