We were so happy to have Alison Amshoff M.Ed, MS, CCC-SLP, ATP from enTech to lead our October Education Series. enTECH is part of Spalding University and is one of 5 assistive technology resource centers in the state. They offer an assistive technology lending library which allows people to try and utilize technology before they purchase it, a virtual playground that can be accessed by families, and therapists and a financial assistance application for help purchasing the technology needed for your child.
The topic was originally slated to be about assistive technology, but out of necessity evolved into tips for getting more engagement from non-traditional/online learning. Here are technology resources and general tips Alison shared to help students engage with the computer and get the most out of their virtual education.
