SWAAAC

SWAAAC originated in Colorado schools in 1985 with 25 members. AT includes both products and services.

The State Wide Assistive Technology and Augmentative Alternative Communication (SWAAAC) Program provides multidisciplinary Assistive Technology services to students with disabilities across the state of Colorado. SWAAAC is a statewide initiative supported by the Colorado Department of Education, and managed by The Center for Inclusive Design and Engineering (CIDE) at the University of Colorado Den

ver, Department of Bioengineering. Today, there are over 60 participating school districts and nearly 500 SWAAAC team members across the state. The primary aim of SWAAAC is to support Assistive Technology (AT) teams in Colorado school districts. Assistive technology (AT) is any tool, from low to high tech, that helps an individual with disabilities achieve greater independence and ensures access to his or her education. Assistive Technology teams are interdisciplinary groups comprised of education professionals from disciplines such as speech language pathology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, special education, and psychology. They work collaboratively to provide AT services in schools to enable students with disabilities to achieve full access and participation in educational opportunities. Most school districts in Colorado have SWAAAC teams to serve their students with disabilities. These teams may be called SWAAAC Teams or Assistive Technology Teams. Check with your Special Education Department if you do not see your district team coordinator listed under “Contact Us” on the SWAAAC website at www.swaaac.com.

Every child has something to say. Every single one. For children who have complex communication needs, AAC — Augmentative and Alternative Communication — is the tool that makes their voice heard. Whether it's a symbol-based app, a speech-generating device, or a picture board, AAC gives children the power to express their thoughts, their needs, and their whole selves.

Assistive Technology is... telling you what I think. 💛

Switch-activated toys, adapted seats, and other early intervention AT help little ones engage with the world around them — and make some pretty great new friends along the way.

Assistive Technology is... making new friends. 💛

Accessibility Tip Tuesday! Creating Accessible Tables: Avoid N/A.

Screen readers announce blank cells in spreadsheets differently. We suggest avoiding blank data cells altogether. If you type “n/a” into a cell, some screen readers will read it as “En slash Uh,” or “En slash A,” or “En forward-slash A.” Instead, type “Not applicable” to indicate there is no value.

[Image: Graphic titled “Accessibility Tip Tuesday: Avoid N/A. Creating Accessible Tables.” There are screenshots of two spreadsheet tables. The first screenshot is marked incorrect because there is a blank cell. There is also a cell that has N/A. The second example is marked correct because instead of a blank cell it is written Not Applicable. Instead of cell that has N/A, it is written Not Applicable.]

It’s week 17 of the US Department of Education's document clarifying common AT misconceptions! Today it’s about following up with children who don’t want to use AT. It’s critical the IEP Team works with the child to understand the root cause of the child’s refusal.

[Graphic titled “Assistive Technology Myths and Facts.” A red X appears on a text bubble that reads: “Myth 17: If a child doesn’t want to use AT, a teacher doesn’t need to follow up to model and encourage the child to use the AT.” Below it, a green checkmark appears on a text bubble that reads: “Fact 17: If a child does not want to use an AT device, it is critical that the IEP Team works with the child to understand and address the root cause of the child’s refusal.” At the bottom is the logo, “The Center for Innovative Design and Engineering (CIDE) SWAAAC”]
