Special education teachers’ post-pandemic use of assistive technology

Post-pandemic, SETs report comfort with AT and higher use of AT associated with university design for learning (UDL). However, use of specific AT devices including those supporting response, environment, and screen access, remains low. Consistent with pre-pandemic research, SETs report limited use and support for implementing targeted AT.

Abstract

Post-pandemic, SETs report comfort with AT and higher use of AT associated with university design for learning (UDL). However, use of specific AT devices including those supporting response, environment, and screen access, remains low. Consistent with pre-pandemic research, SETs report limited use and support for implementing targeted AT.
