ATIA Chicago - 2011


Today, tomorrow and Saturday I'll be spending some quality time at the ATIA (Assistive Technology Industry Association) Conference at the Schaumburg Renaissance Hotel.  Today I started off the day by presenting - Independence for All - you can see the Prezi by clicking the link.  Also, additional information is available on my wiki - Teachntech Wiki.

Tomorrow, the EdCeptional crew will be talking, and between all that I'll be attending sessions and checking out the vendor hall.  You can find my notes from various sessions here - ATIA 2011 Chicago Notes, which include a very cool App Smackdown done this morning!  I'll post some of my favorite products from the vendor hall in the next few days.

If you are at ATIA, please stop by and introduce yourself!  You can find me at @teachntech00 on Twitter.

ATIA-Chicago 2011

I am excited to again be attending and presenting at the ATIA conference in Chicago.  This conference taking place on November 2 - 5 at the Schaumburg Convention Center, is a great opportunity to learn and network with many AT professionals.  I have the opportunity to present in 2 different sessions.

Utopia B, 8:00 - 9:00 am

Mobile devices are the perfect platform to help students be more independent in the classroom, school, community and beyond. Apps on mobile devices can be used to help students access learning, scheduling and information at job sites and more. Let’s take a look at the major mobile devices and see how and when they can be used.

Schaumburg A, 9:15 - 10:15 am

Participate in a community forum on use of technology in special education with the crew of EdCeptional! EdCeptional is a weekly podcast that highlights access to learning for exceptional students of all abilities. During this session, the EdCeptional crew will lead an informative yet fun roundtable discussion on a variety of topics related to special education & technology. Topics will be chosen based on the interests of the audience. We are open to discussing anything - from accessibility to UDL, from apps and iPads to Web 2.0 tools like QR codes!

If you are attending ATIA please take a moment to introduce yourself!
