#ATchat
I'm new to the Twitter world, but I often hear that its a great place for PD. I've made it a goal to try to use Twitter more often now that I'm in this field. Karen Janowski is a well respected professional in our field, and I've learned a lot from her through classes, meetings, conferences, and various professional development opportunities. Karen leads an #ATchat on Twitter every Wednesday evening from 8-9, and I finally had a chance to attend last night! The discussion was on "AT, EdTech and UDL" and I thought it was awesome! People from all around the United States participated, and I felt that there were some great conversations, questions, and ideas. It was interesting to see how everyone runs into similar problems no matter what state they are from, but it was great to hear the different ways people educate and provide PD to assist with these problems. I'm looking forward to attending more #ATchat discussions in the future.

Welcome!
Welcome to my page!! This is my first blog and my first post! I'm an assistive technology specialist, and I wanted to create this blog to share some of my ideas and resources. I have a background as a speech language pathology assistant and completed my undergraduate work at UNH in Communication Disorders. I am currently working on my graduate degree at Simmons College in Assistive Technology. This is my 8th year working in special education, and my third year working as an AT Specialist. In the past, I’ve had experience working at a Collaborative, a private school for students with learning disabilities, a pediatrics clinic, and a public school. I hope this blog will allow me to capture some of my knowledge, thoughts and ideas as I continue my journey in the field of assistive technology.
