Technology+Screening

After completing the Personal Choices survey with the student, I found that they learn best, and focus best in natural sunlight, and when using the color yellow. Therefore, referring to the Assistive Technology Continuum, I found a lot of good recommendations for the use of technology with this student. The student, in order to help with organizational thinking while reading or studying, should highlight, or use highlighter tape in the color yellow. The student also indicated that post-it notes helped him look back the most easily. This student also focused best when placed in a situation with natural light. The student has moderate autism, and focused least in a fluorescent light setting. Luckily, this doesn't require an environmental changes or light changes, it only requires that the student be seated next to a window.
