Adaptive Technology / Assistive Technology Products

 

 

Assistive technology products cover a wide range of needs. This page focuses on those products most likely to be needed by CS-SIS members and their institutions. They may encounter students with motor, hearing, or vision impairments and seek products that help meet the challenge of providing services to these users. The Committee will add product reviews as time permits.
