AT Resources for Educators

As Oklahoma’s Assistive Technology (AT) Act Program, Oklahoma ABLE Tech contracts with the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) to provide AT devices and services for Oklahoma public school students, educators, and families.

Take advantage of expert training events, consultations, and resources that Oklahoma ABLE Tech has to offer!

This page was developed for administrators, educators, and related service providers to access professional development content related to AT devices and services to provide increased independence to students with disabilities. The training events and resources described on this page help school districts build capacity for quality provision of AT devices and services to help students with disabilities achieve success.

AT Consultations

Do you have questions about specific students who may need assistive technology (AT)? We can help! Trained Oklahoma ABLE Tech staff are available to help a student and the individuals who are part of the student’s support network. We assist family members, teachers, therapists, or counselors to identify, evaluate, and acquire appropriate AT devices and services.

Visit our AT Consultations webpage to access the interest form and instructions, and an Oklahoma ABLE Tech staff member will contact you through the assessment process.

ABLE Tech’s AT Consultations are modeled after the SETT Framework created by Dr. Joy Zabala and resources developed by the Wisconsin Assistive Technology Initiative (WATI).

AT Assessments

Follow the assistive technology (AT) assessment guidelines on our AT Assessment Resources for Educators page to access helpful forms and other AT assessment-related resources.

Borrow AT for Up to Six Weeks

The assistive technology (AT) loan process allows Oklahomans to register, log in, and submit requests to borrow AT devices for up to six weeks. Visit the Device Loan Program webpage to learn how to submit an application.

Oklahoma ABLE Tech’s short-term loan inventory includes more than 2,300 devices you can borrow for free to trial with students! The loan can be used to assist in decision-making, fill a need while waiting for a device repair or funding; provide a short-term accommodation; or for professional development.
