Whilst following Matthew Kearney’s blog I came across an interesting post focusing on technologies being able to support special needs students. Along with most people I am aware of the amazing things that technology has done for may special need students over the years, however I was thinking of things such as wheelchairs, not iPods and iPads. It was not until I watched this powerful video that I did not see the potential these new technologies provide. This particular video focuses on how iPods and iPads provide students with Autism a way in which to comminicate in their own way and involve themselves in class activities in way they may not have previously been able to.
