PLA: This student is currently enrolled in a regular education program for their academic subjects. His hand strength is limited and he fatigues easily. He experiences great difficulty writing long assignments that are lengthy.
Annual Goal: Student will use a computer or portable word processor to complete 100% of his assignment in 10th grade English and Civic classes.
Suggested AT device: I would suggest naturally speaking voice recognition software such as the Dragon Software I discussed in an earlier post. This device would well for this student because he can speak his writing assignment aloud and the software will type out the words for him. This student has limited hand strength and may become frustrated even with the help of a modified keyboard. Because his assignments are long, he would benefit from a device that would do most of the typing for him.
