🌟 AT Tip #12: Let’s stop checking boxes and start collaborating! 🌟

When it comes to Assistive Technology (AT), teamwork really does make the dream work. 💪
Here are some quick reminders for IEP teams to make smarter, student-centered AT decisions:

✅ Don’t decide alone. Include teachers, specialists, families—and always the student!
✅ Use a system, not a guess. Frameworks like SETT help guide consistent, fair decisions.
✅ Match tools to needs. Pick what fits the student’s goals and environment—not just what’s trendy.
✅ Share the plan. Keep everyone on the same page for consistent, successful AT use!

✨ When teams collaborate, students thrive.
