Electronic Touch Tablet
Electronic Touch Tablets are become one of the most popular AT device for all students in the classroom, not only students with special needs. There are many different tablets and iPads offered to meet the needs of any student. In previous post I talked about many different AT devices, however the tablets offer many options to read the needs of the students with many different disabilities. There are options of apps for reading and math practices and skill developing. They offer apps for books on CDs. In addition, you can use it as a word processor, talking processor or assisted literacy software. Therefore, there are many options and sources you can use with iPads and tablets. Leapfrog is a company that offers many different tablets that are not as expensive and options for early learners. They teach students early stages of reading, phonemic awareness and math skills.
Below is a video of an example of a Leapfrog Tablet.

Hi Helen. Thanks for posting this about the LeapFrog program. Sometimes I only think of iPads when I hear electronic touch tablets, but thanks to your post, I now realize there is much more out there than just the iPad!
ReplyDeleteHelen,
ReplyDeleteI agree with Angela. When you hear the term electronic touch tablets you think of the iPad. After reading your blog, I now know there are much more devices then just the iPad. Great job!
