Session description
Purpose & objective
After attending this session, attendees will have resources they can take back to their schools and use immediately. This session is specific to iPad so districts using iPads will benefit from attending. Participants will leave knowing how to give students access to speech to text, text to speech, and other accessibility features. After we address accessibility features, I will show three native Apple Apps that give students the ability to share their understanding of content and address the skills of speaking, listening, reading, & writing. I will give a brief overview of how to use each app and examples of how those tools apply to content. Attendees will be able to implement their new learning immediately.
