The End of a Journey That Will Lead to New Beginnings


Throughout this semester, I have learned so much about assistive technology! I have really enjoyed learning in this class, and blogging about everything that we have done. I have learned about different Universal Design for Learning, which helps teachers include all students into their lessons. I have so many great resources for UDL now that I have completed this course. I know that all of this will definitely help me in my future career as a special education teacher. I also learned so much about assistive technology in this course. I learned all about high-tech, mid-tech, and low-tech assistive technology, and I know that will be a huge help in the future because I will certainly encounter students that use all three! I know that my instruction, planning, and IEP writing will definitely improve because of the information that I learned in this class! I have learned so much since my early posts in this class that it is unbelievable. I hardly even knew what UDL was when I started. I am happy to be finishing up this course, but I am upset that I will not get to continue to learn the information that I was receiving. So, here’s to a new journey into the field of Special Education!

  1. Tom, I have enjoyed following your blog about UDL and AT. The resources you have found have been helpful and useful, and I will be sure to keep them in mind for my future classrooms. Reading your thoughts in your posts about the various topics, devices, and technologies has made me think more about how I can use them as well. I hope that the tools we have found throughout this journey will help you in your classrooms as I feel the will help me. Good luck in all that you do, I wish you the best!
