| Abstract | The instructor's manual is part of a curriculum intended to help provide Arkansas persons with disabilities or their supporters with basic information on accessing and using assistive technology. The material is divided into three goal areas. The section on Goal 1, the development of technology advocacy concepts, covers basic definitions of assistive technology and services terminology, consumers, advocacy, advocacy groups in Arkansas, steps in the advocacy process, and how a consumer should respond when told assistive technology cannot be provided. The next section, on Goal 2, the development of service delivery concepts, reviews Arkansas providers of technology services, the evaluation process, and factors in selecting appropriate technology. Goal 3 is the development of technology funding concepts. Discussion centers on funding sources, funding terminology, and guidelines for assembling supportive documents. Each section includes suggested small group activities to provide simulated experience in applying the concepts. Nine transparencies provide additional information on selecting appropriate technology, steps in the advocacy process, rights of parents and their children, and parent communication skills. Among 16 handouts are a list of advocacy contacts, sample case studies, and sample letters justifying the need for a device. A resource guide lists technology centers, funding resources, readings (14), product availability resources, computerized databases, and videotapes. (DB) |
