While exploring Oregon Technology Access Program’s website, another
resource listed on page 319, I came across an awesome, FREE download: Hey! Can I Try That? It’s a student-friendly workbook for
students to learn more about using AT, and self-identifying where it should be
used. This would be a great
resource for students who are cognitively aware, or able to self-identify. The workbook itself embodies self-advocacy!
It includes student stories, steps
for setting goals, and self-identification. The workbook has open-response areas for students to fill
out, based on their self-identification, which include:
- What’s the problem?
- What’s the situation?
- Would I use this AT?
- What will I use and how will I use it?
- What needs to be done?
- How is my AT working for me?
I think this is an AMAZING
self-advocacy tool for students – and honestly, doesn’t it mirror the IEP team’s
process?!

I agree, an excellent tool for students to self-advocate!
