DATI Receives Grant
for Educational AT
The Delaware Department of Education recently awarded DATI funding for the purchase of assistive technology (AT) aimed at improving access to educational opportunities for students with disabilities throughout the state. As a result, teachers and students now have greater access to tools that increase communication skills, make print materials more accessible, enhance comprehension, and support teacher-student interactions.
