    • To help the student communicate effectively and efficiently.
    • To help the student demonstrate what he or she knows.
    • To help the student access the curriculum.
  • Uses the SETT Framework to 'consider' the assistive technology needs of the student.
    • SETT stands for Student, Environment, Tasks and Tools.
  • Assists the local district or AEA program in acquiring the appropriate assistive technology,
    • But does not purchase technology for the districts or AEA programs.
