This article describes the obstacles that students with disabilities encounter with educational technology. The most common barriers for all school districts is usually cost for equipment and access in rural areas. Every Kentucky county has these problems which is unfortunate for our students. This article really stresses how students with disabilities have more problems accessing technology than others.
“Lack of funding to train personnel to utilize technology” how often do we see this? Most educators never use the technology fully.
“Such features are critical for educational technology product access just as ramps and lever door handles are critical for facility access.” Sometimes we just miss the basics. This article has a lot of good points.
