SETT

I had asked in class if there were any other frameworks used to decide if a student should access an AT device and how to decide which device/tool to use. I have been looking for other resources, but can't find any. If anyone finds anything, plese post here, under this SETT page. I did consult with the AT coordinator at DAP/Brennen School where I work. She said that we use the SETT framework as well. There are some additional forms associated with SETT that Brennen's team has developed. I thought they might be helpful to see. I couldn't figure out how to attach these word files so that you could just click on them...so I copied and pasted them into the wiki and separated each form by the line below. ______________________________________________________________________
