Dear Susan,

Assistive technology is any technology that enables a person to be able to continue to perform or to circumvent any area of challenge due to a disability.

Using assistive technology tools can be a challenge for students as they enter middle and high school.

Dear Sherry,

Dear Chalina:

Teachers do not have the option to selectively implement IEP accommodations, whether they are good teachers or not.

There are many ways that students can make use of the features available on their cell phones to benefit learning, time management, and study skills.

For some reason, we still feel we have to teach kids how to use all the technology.

Your story is very heartbreaking. You have persevered and struggled to succeed while coping with your disability in silence.

Oh, how easy it is to blame the victim. Your son is struggling in school and the assumed reason is that he is not trying or doesn’t care. I bet he really is trying and that he cares deeply.

Dear Terry:
