The number of postsecondary students with learning disabilities has increased dramatically over the last several years. This increase, coupled with federal legislation mandating "academic adjustments" for students with disabilities, has prompted the development of postsecondary learning disability support service programs. One support service that has begun to attract considerable attention is assistive technology. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of assistive technology as it relates to postsecondary students with learning disabilities by (a) briefly tracing the development of assistive technology service for postsecondary students with learning disabilities; (b) identifying basic models of assistive technology service delivery and specific services; (c) providing a description of specific assistive technologies; (d) reviewing research on the effectiveness of assistive technology with postsecondary students with learning disabilities, with a focus on the authors' 3-year federally funded study; and (e) concluding with a summary and recommendations.
在过去几年中,患有学习障碍的高等院校学生数量急剧增加。这种增长,再加上联邦立法要求为残疾学生提供“学业调整”,促使了高等院校学习障碍支持服务项目的发展。一种开始吸引大量关注的支持服务是辅助技术。本文的目的是通过以下方式概述与患有学习障碍的高等院校学生相关的辅助技术:(a) 简要追溯为患有学习障碍的高等院校学生提供辅助技术服务的发展历程;(b) 确定辅助技术服务提供的基本模式和具体服务;(c) 描述具体的辅助技术;(d) 回顾关于辅助技术对患有学习障碍的高等院校学生有效性的研究,重点关注作者为期三年的联邦资助研究;以及 (e) 最后进行总结并提出建议。
