Starting Out with Switches

Are you new to assistive technology? Have you been using switches with students but would like to update your skills and understanding?

In this webinar, Ian will explore the role of switches as an access method for young people with severe, complex, and profound additional needs.
Together we’ll explore:

• How switches contribute to the development of learning and communication skills.
• What you need to get started.
• Finding the right switch for a student to use.
• Assessing a student’s baseline skills.
• Setting target and monitoring progress.

Ian will also share teaching ideas and free software you can use at each stage of skills development.
This webinar is designed for anyone new to using switches to support students with access challenges and those who may be using switches but want to build their understanding and skills.
