Evolving Technology Environment. The Quarterly Review of Distance Education, 61-76.
This article has proposed a blended model for AT distance education that employs web
based content, online assessment, and online application activities, combined with face-to face
classroom-lab activities, to deliver instruction.

The difference between Assistive Technology and Instructional Technology is becoming
blurred. The decreasing distinction helps with the UDL goal with regards to coursework. The
article discusses implementing effective instructional design in creating useful and effective ATs.

Disabilities in a Higher Education Virtual Campus. Association for Educational Communications
and Technology, 607-624.
The article discusses assistive technology with regards to online courses. It is a survey of
students experience with online learning. The challenges the student encounter is covered in the
article.

Technology. Learning Disabilities Quarterly, 38, 72-83.
Students with learning disabilities use screening reading software (eg. CAST). The
software helps students with reading difficulties. The article discusses the different stages for
implementating the trainging of CAST. This article is useful example of implementing a training
for assistive technology.
