This will be a short post, just wanted to share some of my favorite products from the Vendor Hall.
Satalight - SMART Board on height & tilt adjustable stand. You can access with any type of touch - fingertip, fist, and can take a hit (don't ask them to demonstrate, it's quite impressive!) It's downside is that it does use a projector and can create shadows. Can include a switch interface, laptop arm, and speakers. - Satalight.
Tap-it - another SMART Board solution also on a height & tilt adjustable stand. It is LCD screen, that accepts touch input. It is able to distinguish between intended and unintended touch - so a student could lean on the board with one hand and still access the activity with another. One drawback is that you have to use an isolated finger to access. - Tap-it
News-2-You - a great weekly, current events newspaper modified with symbols. Very accessible, text-to-speech version available online, with tons of extension activities - News-2-You
Aimee Solutions - amazing sets of curricular, theme based materials. This year started selling sets of computer activites based on Life Skills adapted using SymbolStix. - Aimee Solutions
Conceptua Math - I'll be posting more about this website later, but it is my pick for the best product of ATIA. Check out more here - Conceptua Math
