Empowering Access: Transforming Everyday Objects with Makey Makeys
Presented by: Denise Orndorff
Date & Time: Tuesday, November 19, 2024 3:15 PM - 4:30 PM ET
Location: CR2 (Upper Level )

In this session, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of how to use Makey Makeys to transform everyday objects into interactive tools, enhancing accessibility for students with special needs. They will acquire practical skills in creating adaptive learning materials, such as interactive books and custom controllers, and learn to implement these tools to promote independent play and learning. By the end of the session, participants will be equipped to empower students to actively engage in activities, fostering an inclusive educational environment.

Whilst AT Network strives to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so when linking to documents and sites outside of our site. We are continually seeking out solutions that will bring these other areas up to the same level of overall web accessibility.
