Assistive Technology Checklist The checklist illustrates a "hierarchy of selection" when looking for appropriate assistive devices for a student. It lists 2-3 low or no-tech examples of AT, then 2-3 medium-tech and finally 2-3 high-tech examples. The examples in the checklist are just that, examples, not an exhaustive list of options for each functional task. But, it can provide ideas that may be helpful.
