In this episode, we are joined by Christine Fox, the Vice President of Operations at CAST, to discuss assistive technology use in K-12 education. Assistive technology is technology that helps people overcome barriers to interacting with digital tools. It helps break down barriers for people with learning differences and makes the use of the technology “accessible.” CAST’s vision statement reads: “We envision a world where all learning experiences in school, the workplace, and life are intentionally designed to elevate strengths and eliminate barriers so everyone has the opportunity to grow and thrive.” Visit AVID Open Access to learn more.
