MSU-B Classes: I am excited about this opportunity to teach these courses for MSU-B. All of these sessions are fun, informative and well worth the effort. This course is designed for teams of educators who wish to understand more about using technology with students who have disabilities.
Workshops available upon request:
What's New From IntelliTools : If you haven't seen what is new from this leading assistive technology company, you are in for a real treat! New enhancements to tried and true favorites such as IntelliPics, IntelliMathics and IntelliTalk have EVERYONE talking AND writing! Demo CD's of products will be available.

Guided Practice Sessions: These sessions are designed to give all levels of Assistive Technology users, from novice to advanced, time to learn new features, create and share new ideas and activities, find out why a particular technology is not working properly....all under the expertise and guidance of a knowledgeable instructor. Bring ANY Assistive Technology. (The 9/15-16 & 10/27-28 sessions are dedicated to IntelliTools products only.)

AlphaSmart & Dana Hands-on Workshop: Whether you are new to the AlphaSmart family or are a seasoned veteran, you will find out many things about the AlphaSmart you never new and be exposed to the world of the Dana laptop alternative by AlphaSmart.

Assistive Technology Policy & Procedure: Why reinvent the wheel? There are many school districts around the country that have policies and procedures in place for the staff to refer to when considering Assistive Technology for a student. This session will share some of the best examples and start you well on your way toward developing or improving your own policies and procedures.

Northwest Council for Computer Education Conference: This is one of the best regional technology conferences you will ever attend. See you there!
Technology, Reading & Learning Difficulties: One of the best conferences there is on using technology with persons who have learning disabilities. The fact that it is in San Francisco makes it that much more enjoyable.
Montana Council for Exceptional Children Conference: Join my colleagues and I for one of the best educational gatherings in the state. In addition to the pre-conference workshop Using handheld Technology in the Classroom, I will be presenting other sectionals during the main conference. Check the conference calendar for specifics. Looking forward to seeing you there.
