Article 6: Assisitve Technology Benefits All Students: An interview with Assistive Technology Developer Steve Timmer

Steve Timmer created several assistive software because he saw a need in the education area. He also had a need to develop a device that would help him with his eyesight.

I'm impress with some of the technology he developed. I have seen a software for Accelerater Reader. Some of my students have use it. The software reads the questions and answers to their library book. This program saves the teacher time to spend with another student.

Some of the programs I might suggest for parents to use with their children. The Universal Reader and the Text to Audio are good candidates.
