Assessment Techniques
11. SETT Framework
- The purpose of the SETT
Framework is to aid in the creation of an individualized education plan
for the student. The framework
allows the team to focus on four specific areas, the student, the students
environment, the tasks required for participation and the assistive
technology that will enhance the students learning environment. The questions that are a part of the
SETT framework are designed to
encourage the members of the planning team to create the best possible
plan for the student.

The
purpose of the Matching Person and Technology (MPT) model is to take into
account the various factors that influence the accessibility of technology for
a student. In determining the
appropriate assistive technology for a student a large number of factors do
come into play, including expectations, economics and preferences for different
forms of technology.

3. Lifespace Access Profile
- “The purpose is to provide a
“client-centered, team-based collection of observations that point to next

The
Human Activity Assistive Technology approach places its “emphasis on the
interrelationships among numerous dynamic elements, including; 1. home and
school environments, 2.the student’s personal perceptions, and 3.resources
available to the student. All of the elements guide the functional response of
the school team.”( www.slideshare.net/mjmax/assessment-models-assistive-technology)

5. Education Tech Point Framework
·
The
Education Tech Point Framework is “based on a process associated with the
delivery of vocational rehabilitation services. The developers of the model
propose that the model integrates AT into the special education service
delivery process.”(http://www.abledata.com/abledata.cfm?pageid=160377&ksectionid=160164&atlitid=178338)
