Students with Physical Disabilities
Physical disabilities affect the student's mobility and agility (Robyler and Doering, 2010, p. 418). Typically physical disabilities are concurrent with other disabilities. There are many assistive technologies available.
Switches
For students with moderate to severe cognitive disabilities, switches and joysticks might be an assistive technology that will help them learn. Switches can be used in place of a keyboard if keyboard is too difficult.
Environmental Control Units
Environmental control units are like a universal remote. They help people with disabilities do a variety of tasks from one tool that can be switch or voice operated.
