KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:08 PM EDT

@eyeonaxs I've updated but haven't explored the new features. What do you need to know? #ATchat

lessonpix Sep 28 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1: On the robust vocab, I've seen more & more core board being created - but feedback is it's hard to implement in blended settings #atchat

My favorite thing about iOS Switch Control is that you can use ANY Bluetooth KBD as a switch device! @eyeonaxs & I tested it #atchat

@KerriHslp I've used this with 1st and 2nd graders. W/ the right amount of training and guidance it is tremendously successful! #atchat

lrdichiara Sep 28 @ 8:27 PM EDT

@KarenJan @KerriHslp The biggest push back I get is fear that TTS will prevent Ss from learning to read....it's quite the opposite! #atchat

lrdichiara Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@eyeonaxs @KarenJan @at_makers @mmatp Sadly Facebook is for "old people" like my Ss tell me! The cool kids are all on Snapchat! lol #ATchat

JenniferSavedge Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@at_makers @eyeonaxs @KarenJan @lrdichiara @mmatp Facebook group would be great! #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@KerriHslp @lrdichiara if it doesn't-go into Chrome settings then disable, re-enable the extension. should get it to work #ATchat

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@lrdichiara @eyeonaxs @at_makers @mmatp It's the best annual AT conference. #ATchat https://t.co/rECx29lPKX

rtopp Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@KarenJan #ATchat I wish I was going.

JudithSchoonov1 Sep 28 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@at_makers @KarenJan @mmatp @lessonpix Pizza & all of you in one place? I'm there! #ATchat

hillavee Sep 28 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@at_makers @KarenJan what are you thinking? #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@JenniferSavedge @at_makers @eyeonaxs @KarenJan @lrdichiara Yes-I agree. All these FB groups are forcing me to use my FB! #ATchat

KerriHslp Sep 28 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@mmatp @lrdichiara OK-thanks for the tip! #ATchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:44 PM EDT

@JudithSchoonov1 @at_makers @KarenJan @lessonpix Extra excited this yr. My family is coming down & my kids want to help w/edcamp #Atchat

hillavee Sep 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@KarenJan @lrdichiara @eyeonaxs @at_makers @mmatp @rtopp I'm hoping I can go this year! #atchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

So, I will attempt to setup an "#ATChat Live" and will coordinate here: https://t.co/6i4pYPNL1E for now #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@eyeonaxs @ATtips Yes too soon :) I was all set to upgrade. Maybe I will wait a bit #ATchat

Q5: With so much discussion about Chromebooks & iPads, does anyone use scanning pens as well? #atchat

EGraniero Sep 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@at_makers @eyeonaxs @KarenJan @lrdichiara @mmatp could definitely create it if there is not one already. Karen and Mike admins too #atchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@KarenJan and @mmatp can setup an official #ATChat Facebook Group (public please) as they have time

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@e_simmons25 That's why digital text is so important. You can adjust the visual presentation. #ATchat https://t.co/S4ShXk7VEA

e_simmons25 Sep 28 @ 8:44 PM EDT

@KarenJan for Ss who are not able to read effectively they easily become distracted when reading. There is too much to look at...

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@at_makers @KarenJan I will add that to my to-do list! #Atchat

JenniferSavedge Sep 28 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@at_makers @lessonpix just noticed you have yoga pictures! I may have to sign up now to make stuff for my inclusive yoga classes #atchat

lessonpix Sep 28 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@JenniferSavedge @at_makers @lessonpix We have 35,000+ Frikkin pix! (including Unity from PRC) #atchat

JenniferSavedge Sep 28 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Yeah - but the teachers are still on Facebook - need to go where they are to spread PD #atchat https://t.co/PS1UyZyGYM

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@e_simmons25 I show it to students all the time. It's excellent. Love the comfy couch icon. #ATchat https://t.co/Zzy8I9emOp

e_simmons25 Sep 28 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@KarenJan I have been researching about readability. It is a chrome extension-any reviews?

MaegeK Sep 28 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5 we have a ton of them in our closet, but find they aren't as useful for generalization. #ATchat

eyeonaxs Sep 28 @ 8:48 PM EDT

@KarenJan @e_simmons25 I like the focus mode in Voice Dream Reader - block out so only a few lines visible. Pac Man mode too. #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@KarenJan @e_simmons25 Such a powerful support. Reduce distractions. Focus on text. Export webpage as ePub to view in iBooks #ATchat

eyeonaxs Sep 28 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@JenniferSavedge Besides, I’m funny looking enough already - no filters needed. #atchat

ATtips Sep 28 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@eyeonaxs Playing with iOS10 magnifier on my iPhone- it's great! #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@eyeonaxs @KarenJan @e_simmons25 Had really good success with Pac Man mode w/ Ss. Interesting reading support #Atchat

@KarenJan @e_simmons25 If you like Readability, check out the built in Safari Reader on iOS - does the same things. #atchat

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:50 PM EDT

Curious. What do people think about this unscripted format tonight? Should we repeat this or keep the Q1A1 format every week. #ATchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@PossBeth will you be at the High School in Rockville on Wed? #teachingHSKids #kindaScared #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

Don’t forget-we are always looking for guest moderators. Fill out the form: https://t.co/wUQEjE6Lej #ATchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@KarenJan I find it exhausting, but I'm trying to represent two Organizations ;-) #atchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@KarenJan I like the unscripted format. Maybe we add one #ATchat per month that is an open format?

eyeonaxs Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@KarenJan I like unscripted. Maybe that’s just the way my mind works. #atchat

ATtips Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

Speaking of text to speech- loving immersive reader part of OneNote Learning Tools. Free to all students and teachers now #ATchat #OneNote

KelbRiechers Sep 28 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@mmatp @KarenJan I agree! this was fun #atchat

lessonpix Sep 28 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@at_makers @KarenJan This is 100% true, but I like it #atchat

bcdtech Sep 28 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@mmatp @KarenJan Either is Ok by me. Participate does show the questions if formatted that way #atchat

KerriHslp Sep 28 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@KarenJan I liked it...maybe once a month or every other week? #ATchat

EGraniero Sep 28 @ 8:52 PM EDT

@mmatp @KarenJan that is a great idea. #atchat

lrdichiara Sep 28 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@JenniferSavedge Agree completely! I always think it's funny when kids say that 2 me. I think the group on FB is a fantastic idea #atchat

@KarenJan I honestly prefer the scripted format. Too hard to follow this for me. #atchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:54 PM EDT

Ok, if you're up to show your face on the "#ATChat Live" (not just watch!) DM @LessonPix or @AT_Makers and I'll setup a time #atchat

Let's try the open forum 1x month for a couple months and see how it goes. I will add it to our upcoming schedule. #ATchat

latzkeb Sep 28 @ 8:56 PM EDT

This is my first time to follow a live chat. It was a little confusing, but I want to follow up on some of your ideas. Thanks!#atchat

possbeth Sep 28 @ 8:56 PM EDT

Next week we will be talking about the importance of data driven AT services! Come with strategies you use for data collection #atchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@KarenJan Should the live discussion be on Wed before/after? Or perhaps Thursday so we can talk it up? Maybe first time a #CTG2016? #atchat

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@possbeth Looking forward to this next week. #ATchat https://t.co/eu6zBonkbR

KelbRiechers Sep 28 @ 8:57 PM EDT

@bcdtech not in love with the base shown here #atchat need to research some more

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:57 PM EDT

@latzkeb Try one of the chat tools like this one https://t.co/Zq7asDVA7O - it keeps things in order & lets you pause #atchat

KarenJan - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:57 PM EDT

@at_makers Are you thinking of every other week? For how long - 30, 45, 60 minutes? #ATchat

mmatp - Moderator Sep 28 @ 8:58 PM EDT

Make sure to follow everyone from today’s #atchat Let’s continue to learn and share!

@JoymGauthier So glad you found it interesting. Thanks for joining. What motivated you to follow the chat? #ATchat

at_makers Sep 28 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@KarenJan @at_makers I think every other week for 45 min. 30 minutes planned (Show & Tell) & 15 minutes chat? #atchat

KelbRiechers Sep 28 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@at_makers @bcdtech I wish I had access to a 3D printer, not in my district :( #atchat
