Author's, vendor's, or publisher's description Has Technology Been Considered? A Guide for IEP Teams(50 pages) by A. C. Chambers was published in 1997 and provides a nice guide on assistive technology. In addition to what assistive technology is, why it may be needed, information on the laws which direct it, the booklet provides a framework to guide the IEP team as they consider the assistive technology needs of a child with special needs.
