Assistive Technology Blogs We're Following

In order to stay up to date on the most recent news and developments in the world of assistive technology, I will be following a variety of other assistive technology blogs from across the country.
These are a few of the blogs that I will be following:
“Assistive Technology Blog” - http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/
  • This blog was started in 2011 and is authored by a student who has a physical disability and has benefited from the use of assistive technology for reading and writing. This blog provides a perspective I cannot experience: a look through the eyes of someone who uses this technology themselves.
“Assistive Technology” - http://assistivetek.blogspot.com/
  • This blog was started in 2004 by psychologist Dr. Friedlander, Ph. D., an expert in the field of assistive technology, who uses various assistive technologies in his work as a professor at a college in New Jersey. This blog will offer the perspective of someone with expertise in the field of assistive technology.
“Assistive Technology Blog – Maryland Department of Disabilities” - http://blog.mdtap.org/
  • This blog was started in 2011 by the Maryland Department of Disabilities as a source for information, reviews, and other resources relating to assistive technologies. This blog offers a similar perspective to my blog in that it is written by an organization dedicated to people with disabilities.
By following these blogs and other news sources, I will be pulling the best topics and ideas out and putting my own analytical spin on them. Be sure to check them out as well for additional topics not covered here!
