§ Describe each ATs purpose and capabilities

§ Provide information on each ATs cost

§ Explain how each AT could be applied in the classroom (e.g., examples of learning activities which use the AT)

§ Evaluation of which AT would be a better investment

For this assignment option, you are welcome to either record yourself in front of the camera, or record yourself talking over a PowerPoint presentation. When you are finished, submit your work as a link pasted into a Word document.

Option 2 – Written Analysis

In Microsoft Word, compare the two ATs you selected. Imagine you will be providing this document to your school’s principal, as possible solutions for students with mild learning disabilities. Your analysis should be clear, succinct, easy to read, and one to two pages in length. In your analysis, you should:
