IEP and AT


AT documentation occurs at an IEP meeting. Technology is considered for every individual who has an IEP, and meets at least one of the disability areas listed in the state and federal laws, while impacting the growth of learning. However, there are several considerations that occur before suggesting a specific type of assistive technology. The AT must meet academic and functional goals that are listed in the IEP. The IEP annual goal must include area of need, direction of change, level of attainment, and relationship to the functional task the child needs to preform. Goals for choosing AT can be identified by utilizing the UDL goal-setter resource. Assistive technology can be identified as a supplementary aid or service that are beneficial in a least restrictive environment.
