Abstract

Although models have been proposed to guide the important work of school teams as they implement the assistive technology consideration process, little understanding exists as to how these models relate to recommended practices for educational assessment. This article proposes a comparison between educational assessment practices and four selected models of the assistive technology consideration process that are documented in the literature. The strengths and limitations of the assistive technology consideration models are discussed and recommendations for future research and practices are presented.
