Ideas

alltogether.wordpress.com has great ideas for assistive tech and speech. Check out their blogsite. Here is a copy of their lasted blog.

Individuals with autism or other developmental disabilities, may be able to use Speak, the open source software available for the OLPC XO laptop, as an augmentative communication tool to help meet their daily communication needs. The basic function of this application or activity as it is called in the OLPC world, is that you type, press enter, and it speaks.

Hey, thanks for the encouragement and glad you find the blog helpful. Your picture of the children with the keyboards, neos maybe, is terrific. What a great image!

For your work on iPod and PowerPoint tutorials, know that a great application is to convert your PowerPoint books to jpgs and you then have accessible books. They look great on the iPhone/Touch!
