Odd ? But is there anyone Out there in the #ATChat land That Has worked with an eye gaze AAC user and walked through high school diploma options including potentially pursuing GED?
My district has it only for employees, but we have a lot of links to websites such as @DonJohnstonInc@texthelp@TobiiDynavox@SaltilloCorp They keep their sites updated so we don’t have to worry about features being added and having to update constantly. #ATChat

Definitely agree with this way of thinking, it makes it easier on the webmasters end (me in my district☺️) so that they aren’t having to constantly update it #ATChat

Don't miss Erin Sheldon's keynote. #TalkingAAC strives to build a community of learners who believe in the communication potential of each individual. Thur. Nov 29 https://t.co/FjARJKsEhR
Anyone have good resources for teaching the stages of switches? We have used @SENICT and other older resources but does anyone have anything new? Wonder if there is a great infographic...would be easy for staff to look at. #ATchat
Hi Sandy and everyone else. I'm in late tonight! Thanks on the screen mask feature! I will pass this along! Special to me as my daughter has eye tracking problems so we are excited @DonJohnstonInc#atchat

That is great to hear! We think it is the most efficient for you too! Let us do the updating. Question back. How do you get people from your district to these links? Is there a spot on your site? #atchat

Glad the Students are Excited. That's what it's ALL ABOUT!. If you have trouble spelling and creating sentences you need it EVERYWHERE! This is a key difference between AT and features built into applications.

Yes we link to your site and YouTube channel. We make it easy for them by having each tool. On another note, used UPAR and saw a 5th grader was above grade level with her text reader, her independent reading level is 3rd. ❤️ UPAR and the data it provides. #ATChat

Whew....! I like this topic of supporting districts with on the job training. How do you all educate on new features? How can we help you get the word out? #atchat
AAC and literature! Amazing librarian adapting her own books and students are loving it. We appreciate you! @OurLoudLibrary@ParkHillSchools#ATChat thank you!
Increased Self Esteem...priceless! Thank You for including your students in a data driven process! This is my most favorite part! Changing attitudes is one of the hardest jobs and uPAR does it for teachers AND students! Fights..it is cheating attitudes! #atchat#uPAR

#atchat Great strategy! By the way...I am hearing in many of the districts we work in that STUDENTS are "finding" the new features and training others. Isn't that what it is all about! Makes my heart sing...they are learners for life!
I have a link to my Google site in my signature, but I may have to add a check this out. The Ss see a new button and instinctively click it to see what it does (I do too ;)), they are not afraid. #atchat
