Welcome to #ATchat Tonight we are live from #CTG18 We just finished the 20th Anniversary party for QIAT. Tonight our chat will have two parts. First, we will discuss how QIAT has impacted AT services. Then we will hear from people here and they will share what they have learned
A1: I am a member of the QIAT listserve, it was such a valuable resource when starting in the field and it continues to be that same valuable resource today #atchat
A1: QIAT is a great place when the question arises that you don't have an immediate answer to... such a large resource of people with experience #atchat
A2: I use the Quality Indicators all the time while working with teams to build capacity. Really helps us identify areas of strength - areas of improvement #ATchat
Interesting how there are more tweeters at #ATIA compared to #CTG. Does that same something about the participants? If so, I'm not sure what it says. #ATchat
A2: I use the QIAT indicators for self evaluation & reflection. Am I leading the team to grow so that the students can continually grow/achieve. #ATchat
We use the Quality Indicators to guide the @PATINSPROJECT AEMing for Achievement grant teams as they procure and ensure accessible materials for qualifying students #ATchat
A2: The Quality Indicators have really helped me to build capacity within my district and focus on feature matching to ensure the device fits the needs of the students. #ATchat
A3: I have found the Self Evaluation Matrix has allowed me to make slow and necessary modifications to our AT procedures and guidelines through reflection and feedback from all stakeholders. #atchat
For the last part of tonight’s #ATchat - Let’s hear from everyone who is here at #CTG18. What have you seen? Products, Presentations, Ideas What connections have you made?
A4: the resources help keep the team(s) cohesive in it’s objectives/responsibilities and keep the (constant re-) assessment process fluid throughout the years. #ATchat
I was in a session led by @googleaccess today learning more about Chromebook #a11y Coming Soon: real time captioning while presenting G Slides. Amazing stuff #atchat
