More than 6 million children with disabilities in North America
require assistive technology and related services each year in
order to participate and succeed in school. This book, Quality
Indicators for Assistive Technology, provides an essential guide
for assessing a child's needs, choosing and implementing the right
technologies and services, and training education professionals in
how to optimize learning with these critical tools. Work on the
Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology (QIAT) began in the
summer of 1998 when a group of assistive technology (AT) service
providers shared their concerns about the complexity of selecting,
locating, and delivering AT and AT services in K-12 and
postsecondary environments. They agreed on the need for
professional guidelines to improve the quality and consistency of
AT delivery. Since then the QIAT Leadership Team has gathered input
from more than 4,000 individuals ranging from students and families
to school staff, policy makers and higher education faculty. After
many drafts and revisions informed by the field, the result is the
Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology: A Comprehensive Guide
to Assistive Technology Services. This book is indispensable for:
school districts as they strive to develop and provide quality
assistive technology services aligned to federal, state and local
mandates assistive technology service providers as they evaluate
and constantly improve their services consumers of assistive
technology services as they seek appropriate assistive technology
services which meet their needs universities and professional
developers as they conduct research and deliver programs that
promote the development of the competencies needed to provide
quality assistive technology services policy makers as they attempt
to develop judicious and equitable policies related to assistive
technology services. Filled with information and supports such as
self-evaluation matrices, suggested activities, checklists and
other helpful tools, Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology is
a clearly written and well-organized resource for those who seek to
ensure that quality AT services are provided.
