The Value of DO-IT to Kids Who Did It! by Sheryl Burgstahler Exceptional Parent , November 2002, 32(11), 79-86 Individuals with disabilities experience far less career success than their non-disabled peers. However, differences in achievement diminish with more education. Only 16 per cent of people with disabilities with less than a high school diploma participate in the labor force, compared to 30 per cent of those who complete high school, 45 per cent of those with some postsecondary education, and 50 per cent of those with at least four years of college. Without a postsecondary degree or job experience, people with disabilities have a harder time finding challenging careers. High tech careers are particularly desirable because of advancements in assistive technology that provide access to computers and scientific equipment for people with a variety of disabilities. This column shares information about a program that promotes college and career success, and lessons learned that can be applied by those who work with young people who have disabilities. The DO-IT Scholars DO-IT (Disabilities, Opportunities, Internetworking, and Technology) at the University of Washington (UW) in Seattle sponsors a program that is creating leaders, mentors and role models for the next generation. The DO-IT Scholars program uses computers, the internet, assistive technology, summer study programs, internships and other activities to prepare young people with disabilities for college and careers. Most students begin participation in the DO-IT Scholars program during their sophomore year of high school.

If you wish to cite the article use the following: Lenker, J. A. (2000). Certification in Assistive Technology. OT Practice. 5(21). CERTIFICATION IN ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY by James A. Lenker Assistive technology has emerged as a viable area of specialization for occupational therapists in settings ranging from schools to adult rehabilitation facilities to developmental centers. Therapists who work in this burgeoning field should be aware of the certification process for assistive technology practitioners. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND These two groups began meeting together informally in the late 1970s, culminating in the formation of the Rehabilitation Engineering Society of North America (RESNA) in 1979. Today, RESNA's 1,100 worldwide members come from backgrounds that encompass occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, special education, engineering, and political advocacy. In order to reflect the evolving professional diversity of its membership, RESNA has changed its name to the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America while keeping the RESNA acronym because of its name recognition value. Throughout its history, RESNA has had an ambitious agenda that has juggled support of virtually all arenas comprising the field of assistive technology: clinical service delivery, research, new product development, legislation and funding initiatives, and consumer awareness and empowerment.

Go to Journal index By Mary Ellen Buning What is Assistive Technology? I am always meeting people who have never heard of assistive technology. I am an occupational therapist and I teach people with disabilities, as well as other professionals, about assistive technology. I will use this opportunity to share some of that basic information with you. My additional purpose is to persuade you that Assistive Technology truly "opens the door" to life for people with disabilities. Assistive Technology helps to compensate for the effects of disability-loss of speech, paralysis, incoordination, visual impairment, weakness, cognitive problems - in an active and positive manner. It places the focus not on what is lost but on what is possible...what is constructive...what can be done! Assistive Technology refers to the devices that can be used by persons with sensory, motor and cognitive limitations to achieve greater independence and self-reliance. Typically assistive technology (AT) refers to those devices that are designed with electronics, microprocessors and high performance materials which allow: powered mobility, augmentative communication, environmental control and the use of microcomputers. These devices usually require training for use and customization to fit it to the individual's needs. When the U.S. Congress wrote the Technology Related Assistance Act in 1988 mandating access to AT for people with disabilities, it wrote the following definition:

Microsoft's Commitment MSDN: Accessibility Info for Developers Case Studies Text version Problem-Solving Skills and Assistive Technology Equal Long-term Career Success for Pharmacia Systems Engineer Twenty-five years ago Pharmacia Corporation systems engineer Dennis Raher was fresh out of college with two solid college degrees in hand. He was set to begin a career in the up-and-coming new world of computers—but his search proved frustrating. What he needed was a chance to prove that his visual impairment would not hold him back. The Upjohn Company—predecessor to today's Pharmacia Corporation—gave him that chance. The frustration of the job search is all too familiar to many people. But most people won't face five years of unsuccessful attempts. And most people couldn't hold a positive attitude for that long either. But that's just what Dennis Raher, Sr. Systems Engineer Database Administrator, Pharmacia Corporation, had to do to get his start. Raher is legally blind, but he doesn't waste time thinking about whether that prevented him from getting a job 25 years ago. Back then, as now, he just put his remarkable problem-solving skills to work. In the mid-1970s Raher was a graduate of Michigan State University with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a master's degree in Marketing Research—so he was confident of his qualifications. He just needed a chance to show that his visual impairment would not hold him back, or prove to be an insurmountable problem for an employer.

In analog transmission a continuous electrical or radio frequency wave is transmitted. In contrast, digital transmissions are created by transmitting a code (often binary) that represents specific and finite elements of sound, data or video. Digital transmission has opened up a whole new realm of possibilities in all aspects of telecommunications. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Demo Access Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a high-speed communications network technology that allows multiple types of traffic - such as voice, video, and data - to be transmitted over a network in fixed-size bundles, called cells. Blog or Weblog Demo Access A Weblog, or Blog, is a Web site with a regularly updated list of commentary and links to information on the Internet. A Blog often serves as publicly-accessible journal for an individual or community of individuals, and tends to reflect the distinct character and personality of the site’s users. Operationally, Blogs are distinguished from typical Web sites by easy-to-use authoring tools that make publishing simple for Bloggers. Both the Democratic and Republican national conventions of 2004 made history by issuing press credentials to several dozen Bloggers. While adherents of the new fad applauded, many mainstream and traditional members of the media were critical of the sudden acceptance and credibility of Bloggers.

A dozen years after she lost her sight, Kreger returned to college and spent a year learning a special software program that reads aloud the words she types. At first, he was able to read the monochrome green monitor on his desk, but in less than two years his perception of the screen faded to orange, then brown. Two decades later, adaptive computing is still trying to keep pace. As computers and the Internet have grown in popularity, the physically disabled continue to face a digital divide. Adaptive computing has come a long way since the IBM ScreenReader for DOS that allowed Corona to continue his career. There are Braille keyboards and printers. Speech-recognition software allows people with disabilities to operate computers and dictate text. Specialized Web browsers and other software read online content and other text aloud to blind users.
