=Members of the IEP Team=

An IEP team will most likely include:
 * 1) A general education teacher to help the team identify the tasks required of the student
 * 2) A parent who can discuss how AT might be used in the home environment
 * 3) A student to promote acceptance of AT
 * 4) A speech-language pathologist who can access communication needs
 * 5) A physical therapist and on occupational therapist who can access motor requirements and positioning
 * 6) A computer coordinator to provide information regarding the district's hardware and software resources
 * 7) An AT specialist to suggest resources for the team's consideration
 * 8) Any other member of the student's IEP team

Key Concepts for a Team Approach to AT Decision Making

 * No single individual will have all the necessary information about the student to make decisions regarding AT
 * All individuals on the team should have knowledge of the potential user of AT
