My Project
Students with special needs face unique challenges in communication, literacy, and cognitive development. Traditional teaching methods often do not fully meet their needs. Research has demonstrated that assistive technology, such as iPads, can enhance learning by providing interactive, multisensory engagement.
iPads can be powerful tools for special education teachers when it comes to progress monitoring.
Many apps allow teachers to collect data in real-time, track student progress on individualized goals, and generate reports with ease. Digital portfolios, graphing tools, and customizable checklists make it simple to record observations and measure student growth over time. Additionally, built-in accessibility features like speech-to-text and audio recordings can help teachers document student performance more efficiently while accommodating diverse learning needs.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
