Assistive Technology
What is Assistive Technology?
Assistive technology is any software, hardware or piece of equipment that helps provide
equal access to computer resources as well as alternatives to the way in which we
interact with our computer and written material. Basically, AT is anything that helps
you get your work done.
The following is a list of the technology available on campus and/or by request, links to product websites and brief instructions for use. Assistive technology can be very expensive so free or less expensive alternatives are also listed.
