There are many devices that have been developed for the hearing impaired. Some of the most common forms include altering devices or systems, hearing aids, cochlear implants and speech to print systems to name a few. Since we all have been to GSAT and seen the devices Guam has available, what device would you use to help you implement a lesson for a child with a hearing impairment?

Question on Emotional Disorders Presentation

There are many devices in assistive technology that are helpful for students with emotional disorders to get them to stay focused on tasks in the classroom. Some examples of these devices are: Motivaider, talklight and ipod. Can these devices also help them outside of a classroom setting?....Liwanag and Mae Mendiola

Lenith Atienza- Emotional and Behavioral Disorders

Due to the increasing number of students with emotional and behavioral disorders, I think that parents and educators should work hand and hand to ensure that the students are provided with the needed support.

What do you think we can do to establish a strong partnership between parents and educators?

Specific Learning Disabilities

Today we discussed Specific Learning Disabilities. LD is by far the largest disability category among students with IEP, and represents about 5% of the general population. LD is overly-represented. 

Are we over-diagnosing? How severe must the disability be in order to receive related services? And, how badly must a kid fail in order to receive the attention and help that he/she needs?

Early intervention and identification is difficult because diagnosis lies between potential and performance, is RTI (Response to Intervention) a viable solution to the diagnosis problem?

Shake Awake alarm clock

Portable, compact and lightweight are just a few adjectives I would use to describe the Shake Awake alarm clock. It is an assistive device to wake up even the deepest of sleepers, or so it claims. (more information on my blog)

By Gilbert I. Acosta

Pat Quitugua ATT DEVICE: The Big Track Ball

This device is a great way to assist special needs students more easily ahve access to a computer mouse. the track ball takes the place of the smaller mouse via its' design. The track ball is the biggest computer mouse made in the world with a 3 inch diameter ball inset in a stationary foundation with two large left and right click buttons. (more details about the track ball can be read on my personal blog .http://delicious.com/Coolpatq

My question is as follows: " Are there any available grants that we as teachers can access in order to buy such equipment for our classrooms ???"

Question on Assistive Technology Presentation: Braille

Braille shows that it is an effective tool to use at home, school, establishments, workplace and everywhere. People of different ages who are blind are learning to read and write using braille. Can a teacher recommend an instruction or teach Braille for students who are deaf or with a hearing loss and associated with a little blindness?
