Schools are only shepherds along the way in ALL children's lives, providing necessary preparation and guidance, so that they can become increasingly independent, with self-esteem intact for the next learning/living environment they will face. Dr. Beckman's guide ensures appropriate access tools are available to people with special needs. In this age of technological innovation parents ask, "Can I find tools which will help my child learn and be successful?" Teachers ask, "Can I implement assistive technology even though I'm not a computer expert?" Administrators ask, "Can I know if assistive technology is effective?" Dr. Jeanne Beckman resoundingly answers, "Yes, you can." With her 25 years of personal and professional experience, Dr. Beckman has learned how to effectively provide assistive technology for people with special needs. --James Nuttall, Ph.D., Psychologist and Education Research Consultant, Michigan Department of Education

Finding the right technology to accommodate disabilities,
By Helen Gallagher (Glenview, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tech Psychologist's Guide to Technology and Access Tools (Paperback)
Dr. Beckman has created a powerful how-to guide to help families find the right technology to accommodate reading and other disabilities. There is a wealth of technology available in this book to help parents and adult learners. As a clinical psychologist, Dr. Beckman teaches people how to fit the tools to changing needs. Her "Does it make sense?" strategy helps deal with all the obstacles along the way.
