Abstract

A study investigated the effects of integrating assistive technology into the homes of 13 children with learning disabilities (ages 9-16). All placements were judged to have had positive effects on children and/or their families. Eight placements were judged successful in all three categories of technology performance and child and family variables. (Author/CR)
