Author's, vendor's, or publisher's description ASNAT is designed to help teachers and therapists in the schools. ASNAT provides a wealth of information about assistive technology. The first chapter explains both the assessment procedure that WATI teaches and the packet of forms that WATI has developed to support school teams as they complete the assessment process. These can be reproduced for use by the school district. Each subsequent chapter provides detailed information on specific assistive technology and its use. Chapters address the tasks that students must be able to do such as write, communicate, read, study, etc. The appendix contains numerous resources including print, web, and AT vendors. The 4th edition (2004) has been completely revised. It is a must for school district teams. Upgrades are available for half price by including the cover insert from your old manual with your order. One insert required for each upgrade.
