It’s completely understandable and somewhat comical that what assistive technology is, is completely contextual.

48 hours on #EDUSky. It was absolutly fun and exciting reconnecting with so many #EDU friends whom I haven't been in contact with in years since the previous platform adjusted their algorithms and I stopped using it.

The more options we give as universal design for learning, the fewer accommodations we need for individual students later. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #ATchat #UDL #InclusiveEd

Another good example of “essential for some, beneficial for all!”

Thanks for sharing this, @amandamorin.bsky.social & @emilykm-lpc.bsky.social!

Straws weren’t invented for convenience—they were created for accessibility.
Now? Everyone uses them, including @emilykm-lpc.bsky.social, who I teased about it on Ep. 5 of the Creating Neurodiversity-Affirming Schools podcast. 🥤
That’s the power of inclusive design. #Neurodiversity #EduSky

It's the Int'l Day of Persons with Disabilities! #DisabilityDay

1️⃣ in 3️⃣ older people is a person with a disability.

A more inclusive world benefits us all, no matter what our age or abilities.

This UN Decade of Healthy Ageing, how do we put accessibility at the 💟 of everything we do? 🧵

“Accessibility isn’t extra steps, it’s just the steps we’ve missed.” Great words from @ksuding.bsky.social at #TAAT24 It’s always a pleasure to see my #ATchat friends in person!

The primary purpose of classroom assessment is to inform our instruction, not to determine a grade. Learning in no way depends on grades. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #ATchat #SBLchat #TG2Chat

Appeal has been submitted. I quoted from articles by @yesthattoo.bsky.social @endeverstar.bsky.social & Donaldson & a few others in the justification section. Hopefully his insurance will catch up to current research & thanks to everyone who publishes this! #BskySpeechies #AugComm #ATchat
Gah, I just had an AAC device denial for an autistic kid because the physician wrote in their notes that he “can talk but seems like he does not want to.” I thought we were past this! #BskySpeechies #AugComm #ATChat
