With the adjustments made, the pilots were able to fit inside of the cockpit. This is exactly what assistive technology is about. Adjustments were made to the "average" cockpit to ensure all pilots were able to fly comfortably. In the classroom, everyone is sitting in the same designed desk/chair, depending on what the district provides, not everyone is able to adjust and sit at that desk/chair. We catch students slouching, or not sitting up straight, but did we ever think about how it is because of the design of their workplace? What if they are not "bored" and they are just trying to be comfortable, but can't because the design doesn't allow them? Not all students can adjust to the set design of their desk/chair.]]> 2021-02-09 21:54:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184850955 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184863202 To me, consideration is to think about the different options you may have before you make a final decision.]]> 2021-02-09 21:58:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184863202 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184875403 By collaborating and coming up with strategies that not only work for one student, but multiple.

One area lacking constancy is environment. Students aren't able to socialize with peers, easily ask a teacher for help, or have a poor working space at home. Older students can better manage themselves, but younger students have a difficult time quickly learning technology and how to monitor their own learning.]]> 2021-02-09 22:15:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184912351 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184922430 I feel that trial and error is something that many teachers are working with this year. There are many tools that can reach many students that may be as simple as text to speech or speech to text. Younger students are really struggling with reading and writing, so a tool as simple is talking into the computer can go a long way.]]> 2021-02-09 22:19:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184922430 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184926579 Data collection is essential in order to track a student's progress.

I would like to learn more about this because now more than ever we are utilizing technology. Is there any PD on SETT Framework?]]> 2021-02-09 22:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184940928 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184950348 Roughly 6 minutes into the video, Todd Rose mentions that every year, over 1 million students drop out of school. 4% of those students are gifted, which equals about 50,000 students. He mentions that students, teachers, and parents are those to be quickly blamed. But he raises the question that what if the designs of our education systems are to blame due to poor design? I can agree to this because the math program that we use in my district makes no sense to me and is often very confusing to the students. If we were able to teach a more practical way, students could be more successful. I think this video is relevant to our class because we can give students AT to help them conquer these poor designs in our educational system. ]]> 2021-02-09 22:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1184950348 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190040727 To me this means to carefully think about something before acting on it or doing it!]]> 2021-02-10 22:46:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190040727 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190053927 This is a great assist process to plan and track student data. Students are being measured by what they can do and this is a great way for us to help them based on their specific needs and really dive deeper using data. ]]> 2021-02-10 22:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190053927 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190094343 Most students are not benefiting from this online learning environment. I work in an urban district and most of my children have several family members in their house, so many distractions and stimuli surrounding them, devices are slow, wifi is an issue, parents are working not involved, cameras are off, teachers are calling frequently, grades are not reflecting what students can do. Less student social interaction, less physical movement and online learning is not easy to navigate for all these students, especially the little ones. 

The learning environment is not effective right now. Of course it is safer for some people and some students are less distracted, some students like learning online and are independent but for many these are very difficult times and students need in person learning environments. ]]> 2021-02-10 23:12:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190094343 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190105268 Team work makes the dream work! Teacher collaboration is crucial in times like these and technology is a beautiful thing! I think there are many tools and assistive tech that can be useful for majority or all students, so the more tools we can use can be great for all our learners!]]> 2021-02-10 23:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1190105268 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192150653 Consideration to me means taking time to think about doing something and doing something with high morals. When you act on something with consideration it means you are being careful and respectful to the person or thing. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:35:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192150653 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192157812 This process really helps you clearly develop a plan for a student. Student is the first thing that comes in SETT, and you really look into the student. You can look at what they are able to do and what they still need to do. This helps you collect data to be able to make a plan for the student. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:37:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192157812 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192171487 The pandemic has impacted what an effect learning environment is. Usually the teacher is creating that effective learning environment for the students. They can set up the classroom in a specific way and they can seat students in a specific way. During the pandemic that was all taken away. The effect is that the students now need to create the effective learning environment for themselves. During the first week of school I was able to facilitate in that. We talked about what we need in order to be successful learners. Students were then able to make that decision as to where they wanted to work. Some are working in their rooms, some are laying on their living room floors, some are outside. They chose a learning environment that is best for them. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:40:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192171487 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192190174 Having a planning period to not only meet with your grade level but other grades have been really effective this year. When we were in school, we only had a small amount of time to plan with our grade level. Now that we are online, we are able to meet as a 3, 4, and 5 grade level to really discuss what is working and what is not working in their classrooms. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:44:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192190174 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192203539 The SETT framework really helps generate equality for the students because you first start with the student. You look at strengths and what is lacking and this really helps to determine what the child needs. You are not starting with a general change that "all students get" because one student might need something different. By looking at student needs, everyone stays equal because you are giving them what they need. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:47:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192203539 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192212565 After learning about the SETT method, I am left wondering why this is not a more popular method? This is my first time hearing about it and after learning about it now through videos, I can tell this is a much easier model to follow. ]]> 2021-02-11 13:48:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1192212565 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1196830933 To me, the word consideration means that the IEP team has identified a students needs and collectively asks two questions. One, "does technology exist that could help address this child's needs and make them more independant?" Secondly, and if the answer to first question is yes, "what are we going to do to ensure that the student is able and willing to use the technology." I also think that there needs to be consideration as to if technology that has been implemented in the past is still relevant, being used, and worth continuing. ]]> 2021-02-12 15:18:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1196830933 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198253072 In my opinion, "consider" means to carefully think about something before making a decision. A lot of thought must be put into our decisions in the field of Special Education. ]]> 2021-02-12 20:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198253072 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198317122 In a student's IEP, they may require assistive technology to reach their fullest potential. The SETT Framework forces the team to fully examine all conditions before deciding what is best for the student. Also, assistive technology can help track data. This allows educators to monitor progress over time. ]]> 2021-02-12 21:08:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198317122 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198323904 Learning environments have changed significantly due to the pandemic. For example, my district is using primarily in seat instruction with the exception of the students who chose to work from home. Typically, the teachers rotate to each classroom but since the spike in cases, the district modified our model to still be in person but to teach virtually to our other classes from within our homeroom. In this case, the students still get on the bus in the morning and come to school, but they are receiving mostly virtual instruction throughout the day. This has been deemed more effective than virtual learning from home because the students now have the help of the paraprofessionals within the classroom. The pandemic has forced schools to come up with creative ways to teach our students during this very difficult time; and with that said, what is most effective is always changing because there are so many factors to consider. ]]> 2021-02-12 21:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198323904 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198339736 I am in constant communication with the behaviorist and therapists who work with my students. I think this collaboration is the key to ensure my students reach their fullest potential. Also, developing a PLN that extends past just your school can be beneficial. Therefore, you will have access to more information to bring to the table when meeting with the team. ]]> 2021-02-12 21:18:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198339736 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198345669 AT is not a one size fits all tool. Not all students will benefit from using the same things. The SETT Framework leads educators to a more personalized decision regarding AT for the student. ]]> 2021-02-12 21:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198345669 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198351958 Who initiates the use of the SETT Framework? Would it be the teacher or the case manager? Many of the other questions already posted center around the fact that we have never heard of the SETT Framework before. If educators have never heard of this before, they are unlikely to implement its use with their students. ]]> 2021-02-12 21:23:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1198351958 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199550975 As Dr. Joy said the SETT framework is a framework. It is something that helps provide a springboard for the conversation as well as ensuring that all important aspects of the child's educational life are considered. With regard to data collecting, the set framework brings to light observations that the group can create a plan to take hard data on. Also, the SETT format helps tie the "tool" to the specific area the tool is supposed to help and provides something specific to take data on to prove or see if the tool is effective. ]]> 2021-02-13 17:16:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199550975 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199559165 As teachers are discovering, before the pandemic we as teachers had great control over the environment the children learned in and could change the environment quickly to make it more effective. There was also the benefit that the environment was fairly consistent or at least following a steady and reliable change. Ask any grade school teacher and they will be the first to tell you about their students pointing out how they moved the plant from one spot in the classroom to the other. Now the school "environment" consists of potentially any room in the students house, their babysitters house, their family members house. Something very dynamic. ]]> 2021-02-13 17:21:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199559165 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199572230 To me, clearly defining the are of need of the student goes a long was to ensuring that low-tech options are considered. Secondly the collaboration aspect helps this. Teachers, administrators, case managers, LDTC have experiences with students and frequently have a pretty deep "bag of tricks". Collaborating and sharing what's in everyone's bag might reveal a lower tech option. ]]> 2021-02-13 17:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199572230 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199592848 I loved Mr. Rose's analogy to the air force situation, and the concept of losing everyone in the average. There is this human nature to try and simplify things that works sometimes but frequently causes more issues than it solves. Developing a curriculum that is pre-differentiated is tough and requires a lot of thought and time, but it is also very worth it. ]]> 2021-02-13 17:43:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199592848 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199630323 The SETT framework ensure that each member of the IEP team has a voice with regards to assistive technology and that a collaboration is formed to ensure the best outcome. Secondly, the SETT framework ensures that various factors, (student, environment, and task) are considered when looking at AT and individuals don't fall into the trap of just looking at the "flashy new" technology. ]]> 2021-02-13 18:09:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199630323 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199640307 I too have not heard about the SETT framework until this point and think that it is great. One question I have is about social consideration. This might go under the "student" section of the SETT framework but I wonder where social consideration goes? Particularly in middle school, students are very prone to comparing themselves to other students. While some students might not mind being seen using a specific tool I can't help but think that some wouldn't want to be seen as "different". ]]> 2021-02-13 18:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1199640307 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1201652371 Consideration to me means thinking throughly about the different outcomes that can come from a situation, and doing or picking the best option for you. Also, ultimately being considerate means having respect and treating others how you would want to be treated. ]]> 2021-02-14 19:01:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1201652371 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1201910485 Consideration to me means thinking of the needs of the other person, putting others' interests before yours, thinking of how my actions could impact others.

The educator must think about what type of data must be collected in order to develop a certain type of plan that will assist the student best. The educator then must consider which type of plan should be put into place to assist the student's needs and the negative and positive effects of the plan.]]> 2021-02-14 23:32:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1201999476 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202004193 The pandemic has had a number of effects on an effective learning environment. For starters, a majority of teachers are not even able to be in a classroom with their students. Their environment has now turned into a zoom session. This alone is a huge impact on educators. We are used to being in front of our kids and walking over to them if they need help. Having class over the computer makes things extremely difficult. While we can still answer questions and assist, it is drastically different than being right in front of the students to help them.  I find this especially harder in the younger grades where students do not display much independence.

I have been fortunate enough to be able to be with my students in person 5 days a week , with the exception of a virtual day every other Wednesday. Even in person, the pandemic causes barriers. I am not able to hug my students, they cannot work in groups or partnerships, they cannot have recess or lunch during the school day, etc. These little things make a huge difference in a elementary school students' life. A sense of normalcy is completely absent.]]> 2021-02-14 23:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202004193 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202012487 I think its important that the team works together and starts considering simple tools for a student before going to extreme measures. I think of it just like the I&RS process. You do not want to jump right into an IEP. You want to start with simple strategies and see if they help the student . A big part of considering tools is trial and error . The team needs to see which tools work and which do not. ]]> 2021-02-14 23:46:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202012487 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202024560 Because it allows the team to consider if certain AT will work in the environment that the student is in.]]> 2021-02-14 23:59:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1202024560 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1203838039 Data collection is important in order to come up with an organized plan to help each student learn. Also, data collection helps with knowing how to differentiate and accommodate the needs of every student. When a range of tools are used in the classroom, for example, assistive technology, it can be used to support student achievement. ]]> 2021-02-15 14:34:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1203838039 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204333053 The pandemic has changed the learning environment for children in many ways. First off, there is a constant switch between learning from home through Zoom and learning at school in person depending on the amount of COVID cases in the school building. For students who need a routine, this can be very challenging. Also, students are learning behind a clear divider. They have trouble hearing their teacher and peers talk. I work with students in Kindergarten and the pandemic has changed the way that they can interact with their peers. They have to keep a distance from their friends when they are playing and they can't touch the same toys. This is challenging for students in Kindergarten because this is the year where they learn a lot of social skills and how to communicate with others in the classroom.

Teachers can think of different tools that will help students and try them out. If it doesn't work, they can try another tool. Trial and error will allow the teachers to see what tools work in the classroom and what tools don't work depending on the needs of their students. ]]> 2021-02-15 17:22:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204350108 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204356125 Consideration is the idea of having empathy for someone or being willing to do something.

It starts with the understanding of the environment we're in. Dealing with the circumstances we are in, everyones environments have changed and figuring out the way how we can help each student. It is a process that takes time to think about what works best depending on all of the different circumstances and considerations.

First, communication is key. Discussing the importance of the devices we already have in order to benefit each student. For example, the scavenger hunt had us realize that even the low tech devices are helpful as well. Being aware of all of the helpful resources we have can definitely open our eyes to more useful tools and strategies. ]]> 2021-02-15 18:12:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204483786 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204488226 Assessing to find the baseline is important in colleting data and developing/implementing a plan. There has to be shared vision and open communication among the team to make sure everyone agrees and to recognize the progress the student has made. The student should be the main focus before developing the environment, tasks and tools.

Students who struggle with executive functioning have difficulty with remote learning. This year, I have been teaching in-person, except for when we switched to remote learning for three weeks before the December break. Students need to social distance. Partitions had to be used. There is less social interaction or collaborative work. Materials have to be sanitized frequently. When we came back in January, students were divided into two classrooms. ]]> 2021-02-15 18:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204516092 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204595287 The pandemic has really altered the learning environment. Not only are students sometimes (or always) learning at home through Google Meets or Zoom, thus making their learning environment no different from their home environment, but students who ARE in classrooms are not experiencing school in the same way it has been in previous years. This has had a largely negative impact unfortunately. The limitations that now exist for what can be done in the classroom-specifically how students and teachers can move around and interact- have created an ineffective learning environment. Students are unable to collaborate with peers in the same way, teachers are unable to closely assist students, everybody is separated by physical barriers and six feet of space, etc. This inhibits the social aspects of learning, as well as greatly restricting student learning because not much can be done besides basic "sit at your own desk with a paper and pencil" learning, which does NOT adhere to every student's learning style.

First, many students are not even in a classroom, and are working from their home. In many cases, this means working from their bed or the couch. For those students who are remote, but some of their classmates are in the classroom, they are losing social interaction and collaboration. Students who are in the classroom, are forced to social distance from their teachers and classmates. In my classroom, students are separated through the use of "sneeze guards." However, I have gotten creative and have given my students in the classroom the chance to collaborate with one another by sitting near each other with their sneeze guards. They have been able to work with the students who are at home by using Google Meet and breakout rooms. ]]> 2021-02-15 20:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204837710 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204844583 In my opinion, "consideration" is personal, and on going. When making decisions, such as in education, the factors and variables that affect a student one way may affect another student in a different way. The final decisions that are made must positively impact the individual in question and so "consideration" for the best outcome can look different for every one. Additionally, "consideration" must continue - to examine if initial decisions are still effective and beneficial to the individual. ]]> 2021-02-15 20:49:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204844583 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204854007 The SETT Framework assists with the development/implementation of a plan by understanding students strengths, needs and abilities.

From my own teacher perspective, I find myself undoing traditional lessons, working backwards, starting with the hardest stuff first because it's "the point." I see that same thing reflected in SETT where the goal is to have teachers utilize tools in a MEANINGFUL way. By collecting data that focuses on the environment, strengths, and capabilities of the child, we are allowing ourselves to better consider what each child needs in a way that truly benefits them. It's like closing the gap for error.]]> 2021-02-15 20:59:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204861388 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204863080 Strategies that can help teams consider low tech tools that can still effectively meet student needs include collaboration, communication, and consideration.]]> 2021-02-15 21:00:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204863080 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204868506 This pandemic has been difficult for teachers and students alike. Teaching older grades, I am used to helping shape these young new freshman into more responsible and accountable sophomores. In this year, because of the modifications that have needed to be made in education, I find the biggest struggles my students have is learning to grow up without a real transitional period and without support and guidance. There is a lack of focus on engagement and enjoyment in the educational experience, and of course I understand why- there is so much more to worry about. But if learning looses its excitement, then students will stop yearning for knowledge. I fear most about the long term effects this pandemic will have on education. What will the damage be from a year or more with no interaction, limited support, and lack of enjoyment?]]> 2021-02-15 21:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204868506 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204960941 Consideration is paying attention to needs of students and ensuring that whatever is needed for those students is accounted for in all areas, not only what might be typically considered as education related, but also social/emotional, communication concerns, etc. ]]> 2021-02-15 21:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1204960941 https://padlet.com/mmatp/endofav/wish/1255584057 consideration means taking into account more than yourself or your own thoughts.
