WATI Assistive Technology Consideration Guide

1. What task is it that we want this student to do, that they are unable to do at a level that
reflects their skills/abilities (writing, reading, communicating, seeing, hearing)? Document by
checking each relevant task below. Please leave blank any tasks that are not relevant to the
student’s IEP.
2. Is the student currently able to complete tasks with special strategies or accommodations? If
yes, describe in Column A for each checked task.
3. Is there available assistive technology (either devices, tools, hardware, o software) that
could be used to address this task? (If none are known, review WATI’s AT Checklist.) If any
assistive technology tools are currently being used (or were tried in the past), describe in
Column B.
4. Would the use of assistive technology help the student perform this skill more easily or
efficiently, in the least restrictive environment, or perform successfully with less personal
assistance? If yes, complete Column C.

5. Are there assistive technology services (more specific evaluation of need for assistive technology, adapting
or modifying the assistive technology, technical assistance on its operation or use, or training of student,
staff, or family) that this student needs? If yes, describe what will be provided, the initiation and duration.

General education and special education teachers will need to be trained on how to appropriately leverage

Snap & Read’s Google Chrome Extension to effectively use with SEC student, Travis Porter, each school year.

Teachers will be held responsible for ensuring that once the extension is added to devices that it is leveraged

appropriately. LPES’ STS, Lorraine Dixon, will be responsible for pushing the extension out to student

devices. Marcus Borders, iTeach Coach, will be responsible for training teachers on using Snap & Read as

assistive technology. SEC partners will monitor Travis’ progress quarterly or as needed.
