Assistive Technologies

This week we had to create the Assistive Technologies Newsletter for our fictional SLMC. I created mine based on the fictional Holiday Elementary School. The assignment asked that the newsletter be written using MS Word or another open source program. I was unsure as to whether or not I could use MS Publisher but it is my fault since I did not ask. I prefer to use MS Publisher for these types of projects - newsletters, flyers, posters, almost anything that besides writing papers. Since I have not created a newsletter in MS Word in a long time and have enjoyed the ease of Publisher I am a little disappointed with the layout of my newsletter. I think Publisher has some great templates that can be used and many more options are offered to make the project more creative. Anyways, I thought this was a really good project as it made me really think and read about particular devices that could be used in my future SLMC. I think I learned a lot about devices with this project.
