Utah Center for Assistive Technology

Earlier this semester, my special education class took a field trip to the Utah Center for Assistive Technology (UCAT). I was impressed not only by their hospitality, but also by the range of assitive, adaptive, and accomodative services they provide. We were able to see multiple ways to increase quality of life via communication devices such as peck systems--both physical and on an iPad--adapted mouses and keyboards, and a puff device. UCAT is a useful resource for both school districts and individuals with disabilities.
