What is Assistive Technology?
A Basic Guide for Individuals with Disabilities and Their Families

Third edition, ©2004
By Sharon Hauss, Family Support Specialist


Preface

As a parent of a child with severe physical challenges, I would like to encourage individuals with disabilities and their families to never give up. We are living in a "technology age," so there is always hope that some new device or piece of equipment will be designed to make our daily lives a little easier.

Assistive technology is a term that is now being applied to the equipment or devices that individuals with disabilities have been using for quite some time, e.g., wheelchairs, walkers, ramps, communication boards, etc., It should also be noted that assistive technology and services are defined in federal legislation.

Being knowledgeable about assistive technology devices and services is not always enough. Individuals with disabilities and their families need to be familiar with the laws, both state and federal, in order to get the equipment and services that they need. Whether or not an individual gets a piece of equipment (for example, a communication device purchased by the school) depends not only on how the Individualized Education Plan was written, but also on families' knowledge that laws do exist to support education and the use of assistive technology to access that education.

I have tried to provide the appropriate assistive technology for my son during the past 21 years. It has not always been an easy task, especially when my son was very young, and I did not have information at my fingertips! Many times I just had a feeling to go on - an instinct, not knowing if I was making a good choice or not. It has been my experience that appropriate assistive technology can make the difference between:

1) general education placement verses special education placement;
2) being a participant or "doer" versus an observer on the sidelines; and
3) becoming an independent, productive member of society versus a dependent, unemployed member of society.

Since my son depends on many pieces of assistive technology (a power wheelchair, an electronic communication device, computers, software, a bath chair, and a chair lift in the van, to name a few) to get through each day of his life, and that I am fortunate enough to work at a University Center for Excellence on Disabilities, the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community, I would like to share some of my knowledge and experiences with you as others have done for me in the past.

The following pages are primarily an introduction to assistive technology - what it is, what it can do, where to find it, possible funding strategies, and the laws and regulations supporting assistive technology. Many of the ideas and examples in this guide come from personal experience.


What is Assistive Technology?

Assistive Technology is defined in the Technology-Related Assistance Act (Tech Act) as "any item piece of equipment, or product system, whether acquired commercially off the shelf, modified, or customized, that is used to increase, maintain, or improve functional capabilities of individuals with disabilities" (Tech Act, 1988). Assistive technology can be made at home and designed specifically for an individual, purchased in a local store, or ordered out of a catalog that is targeted toward people with disabilities and their families. Technology can be high tech or low tech. Examples of low tech are ramps, switches, switch-operated toys, communication boards, car door openers, dycem (non-skid material), reachers, roll-in showers, and velcro. Some high tech examples include computers, software, extended keyboards, electronic communication devices, power wheelchairs, and van lifts for wheelchairs.

Assistive technology will not make the disability go away; it can only lessen the impact of the disability (Moore, 1991). Hopefully assistive technology will increase independence and improve an individual's outlook on life. Assistive technology can help students access their education, as well as enable adults to secure a job. Individuals with disabilities can become an integral part or their community - from education to leisure activities to work - with the appropriate technology.

However, assistive technology is not without its problems or barriers. Many times the devices that are needed are very expensive and resources are not readily available; or the equipment is purchased and no training or support system is in place to show the individual how to use it effectively; or the device simply breaks down and needs to be repaired (Moore, 1991).


Considerations Before Purchasing Assistive Technology

Since assistive technology can be very expensive, here are some considerations to think about before purchasing an assistive device:

  • Do some research on the equipment that you are thinking about purchasing
  • Find out all you can about it. If possible, contact individuals that have used this product and find out what they think about it.
  • Always consider the needs of the individual that will be using the technology and get his/her input as to what he/she prefers, can use, will use, etc.
  • Equipment should not be purchased just because it is available; there should be a need.
  • Does the individual have any previous experience using a similar device?
  • What kind of warranty comes with the product?
  • Does the individual have any challenging behaviors which might interfere with the use of the equipment? (For example, does the individual throw things when he/she is frustrated or angry?)
  • How much does the device cost? Is funding from an agency an option?
  • Is a high tech product really necessary or can a low tech device achieve the same results?

High Tech Assistive Technology: Computers, Adaptations, and Software

Computers have become an important part of many people's lives, and they can be particularly beneficial for persons with disabilities. Computer systems and the adaptations that are available can give an individual with a disability greater independence in their home, as well as help that individual succeed in school and in the work force (The Alliance for Technology Access, 1994).

There are many ways to access a computer (you do not necessarily need the use of both hands), including switches, enlarged or extended keyboards, touch screens, voice activation, braille keyboarding, keyguards, and different types of "mice"-just to name a few (Church and Glennon, 1992; The Alliance for Technology Access, 1994). The type of personal computer chosen should depend on the user's preferences. The computer platform or environment, i.e. Macintosh, IBM or compatible, can be adapted or modified to the user's needs.

Macintosh computers and any "PC" (personal computer) that use Windows 95 (or newer) will have accessibility features built into the control panel. For Windows users it is called "Accessibility Options" and for Mac users "Easy Access". If your PC does not have Windows 95 or newer, there is a piece of software available, AccessDOS, that is comparable. The accessibility features include such things as mouse keys, sticky keys and repeat keys. Mouse keys change the number pad into mouse keys, if an individual cannot use the mouse; sticky keys allow the computer user to depress one key at a time, for instance when making a capital letter; and repeat keys modify the rate at which the key would repeat itself if the key were depressed for a period of time.

There are many types of software or programs on the market now-some are better than others. Again, personal choice or preference of the individual with disabilities should be taken into consideration. The software programs can be on 3.5" disks (a hard disk) or a CD (compact disk). New CDs are usually compatible with either Mac or PC. (Before purchasing any software, disk or CD, make sure it is compatible with your computer.) The programs can be in game format or like a textbook. Software can be purchased locally in stores, ordered out of catalogs or the internet. Whole sets of encyclopedias, atlases and dictionaries are available. Software can have sound including music or speech that reads what is written. Educational software can include language arts, mathematics, social studies, science, etc. There are typing programs as well as programs designed to help prepare you for tests, like the SATs. Programs are available to help teach reading to children and adults. There are word processing programs that will read aloud what you have written and word prediction programs. Software can also be recreational, help with communication, vocational needs and/or environmental control (Church and Glennon, 1991).


Computer Access Examples

There are many ways to access a computer if an individual is unable to access it in a typical way, due to physical, visual and/or other impairments. The following is a list of computer access examples to help give you an idea of the many adaptations that are available for computers. It is by no means a complete list. The important thing to remember is that almost everyone can use computers, using some sort of modification.

Touch windows
Mouse alternatives: Trackball, Trackpad, Mouse keys, Joystick mouse
Switch Input, like Ke:nx
Switches (plate, button, sip and puff, etc.)
Keyguard
Alternate keyboards, including miniature and/or enlarged, programmable (like Intellikeys), and on-screen keyboards
Overlays

High Tech Assistive Technology

Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC)

Augmentative communication includes all communication that supplements or augments speech (Indiana Augmentative and Alternative Communication Consortium, 1988). This can include sign language, gestures, communication boards, and electronic devices (Indiana Augmentative and Alternative Communication Consortium, 1988). Electronic communication devices are considered high tech.  As you might expect, there are many types of electronic communication devices on the market. Some have voice output, either digitized or synthesized, while others do not (Church and Glennon, 1992). Digitized speech sounds more like a tape recording of a voice and synthesized speech is mechanical sounding, like a robot. The cost of these vary from $150.00 to $10,000.00, as does the quality and capability.

Some things to keep in mind before an augmentative communication device is purchased include:

  • Is it easy to program?
  • Type of speech--digitized or synthesized?
  • The size of the keys.
  • The size and weight of the device.
  • Is a keyguard available?
  • As the individual's communication grows and develops, are there growth capabilities within the device?
  • What type of warranty is available?
  • Is there support available from the company as to how to use the device and what to do when it breaks down?
  • Is the device a back-up system for the user's "real voice"?
  • Can it be hooked up to a computer or a telephone?
  • How much memory does it have?
  • If the user needs to say something that isn't preprogrammed, can they put the device into a spelling mode and type in the message?
  • Keep in mind the cost and whether or not funding is a possibility.

Communication or picture boards should not be overlooked as a means of communicating. Communication boards are low tech devices, and many times are the beginning of one's communication. Communication boards can be very simple, ranging from two or three pictures, to complex, consisting of pages of pictures allowing the user to form complete sentences. Making a communication board can be very time-consuming, but there is a software program that is now available called "Boardmaker," (available for Macs and PCs) that makes this job a little easier.

The author's son, Michael, started using a "two picture" communication board at about 18 months of age. By age five years, his communication board had become a "book," consisting of several pages. From there he went with an electronic device, the Touch Talker by Prentke Romich, at age 6 1/2. Prentke Romich has since replaced the Touch Talker with the production of the Delta Talker. As a young adult, Michael is using the Pathfinder by Prentke Romich.

It has been mentioned many times over the past 16 years, by speech language pathologists who have worked with Michael, that using augmentative/alternative communication would not discourage him from using his own voice. This seems to be true in his case, as Michael works very hard to use his own voice, along with his communication device.

Other Resources

A federally funded project, ABLEDATA, is a great database on assistive and rehabilitative technologies. "The ABLEDATA database contains information on more than 25,000 assistive technology products (17,000 of which are currently available), from white canes to voice output programs. The database contains detailed descriptions of each product including price and company information. The database also contains information on non-commercial prototypes, customized and one-of-a-kind products, and do-it-yourself designs" (ABLEDATA, 2000).

Low Tech Assistive Technology

Low tech devices usually do not include the sophisticated electronics that high tech devices do. Low tech devices cover a wide range of daily living aids--from battery operated toys, to eating aids, to mobility aids, to mounting and positioning devices, to recreation, and leisure aids (Meadows, 1993). It has been the author's experience that high tech devices are not always the solution; low tech devices are usually easier to find and hopefully less expensive. Sometimes, designing and making it yourself is the best solution.

The following is a list of resources that can be contacted for further information on products that are available. Again, these are by no means the only resources, but they will give you some idea of what is available. Also many companies offer high and low tech devices, so a company may be listed under high tech, when in fact they have low tech equipment as well, and vice versa.

Funding Issues and Strategies

Many times funding becomes an issue as to whether an assistive device becomes a reality or remains a dream. Funding can be a major barrier to the acquisition of assistive technology--the very technology that can mean the difference between independent and dependent, communication and no communication, education in a regular classroom and in a special education classroom, or inclusion and seclusion.

Funding can be a barrier, but it can also be a challenge! The funding strategies that the author has found useful include:

  • Identify possible funding sources: service clubs, Easter Seal Society, United Cerebral Palsy, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Medicaid, private insurance, Social Security Incentives (PASS), fraternal organizations, sororities/fraternities, charitable organizations, religious organizations, etc.
  • Document all telephone conversations including date, time, with whom you spoke, and what you talked about, for future use, in case someone forgets they had that conversation with you, or if you have to talk to someone else at that agency.
  • Be knowledgeable about the assistive device that you are asking for, so you can give specific reasons why that device is needed.
  • Try to match your language/terminology to that of the agency you are trying to get funding from--many times you may be talking about the same thing, but if terminologies do not match, you may not get the funding; this is especially true with insurance companies.
  • Keep all written correspondence that agencies send to you.
  • Get copies of the justification letters from doctors, therapists, and teachers that are sent to possible funding agencies and keep those copies in your files, in case an original gets lost.
  • Find out if there is a "cap" or lifetime limit on assistive devices/services if you are using insurance policies, especially if you are getting equipment for a young child who will need assistive devices for years to come.
  • If you get a denial, find out the specific reason. Do not accept "no" as a reason.
  • Know what the appeal process is for the agency that has denied your request--most have an appeal process.
  • Do not give up! If all avenues fail with one agency, try another; remember: PERSISTENCE!
  • Remember the old saying, "A squeaky wheel gets oiled." Try it!

Laws and Regulations

Four laws are relevant when addressing the assistive technology needs of individuals with disabilities in Indiana. However, there are at least ten laws and regulations (federal and state) which directly affect persons with disabilities. The four laws to be familiar with are: Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Article 7 (Rules and Regulations for Special Education in Indiana).

Briefly, the intent of ADA is to eliminate discrimination against individuals with disabilities. Five main areas, called titles, are addressed. They are: Title I-employment, Title II-government agencies, Title III-public accommodations (businesses), Title IV-telecommunications, and Title V-miscellaneous. IDEA ensures that all children receive a "free appropriate public education," including related services to meet their unique needs. Section 504 deals with "reasonable accommodations" for accessibility in employment and secondary education (Summary of Existing Legislation Affecting People with Disabilities, 1992). Article 7 is Indiana's special education rules and regulations.
