Cerebral Palsy and Adaptive Technology
I have a new student who has cerebral palsy. He is unable to use a computer mouse to do programs on the computer. Our school has an adaptive switch for him to use; however, no internet program such as stafall.com, works with the adaptive switch. The only program I have found that works involves him hitting the switch and a ball kicks into the goal. Obviously, this is not educational and is serving no purpose for him expect mere enjoyment. Does anyone know of any good adaptive equipment for a child with cerebral palsy that works with internet sites? Does anyone know of any good programs that work with an adaptive switch?
