It is rare these days that I come across a website related to Assistive Technology that simply knocks my socks off. I recently came across one that touts itself as a "treasure chest" of freeware for special education students. It is comprehensive, clearly laid out and useful. Check it out; it is worth bookmarking and visiting when the need arises.
Thank you so much for this website! I spent some time on it today and found some interesting and fun interactive learning activities.

I have been studying the benefits of e-learning and I found this website very helpful when exploring how a teacher can use technology in the classrom with children who have special needs. I will attach the title of the book I am reading, which has a very interesting section on assistive technology (133-146).
Holmes, B. & Gardner, J. (2006). e-learning: Concepts and Practice. London: Sage Publications.
And a link to http://www.sagepub.co.uk/booksProdDesc.nav?prodId=Book227967 and to http://www.brynholmes.com/
Thank you for the new resource, I plan to try some of these tools out in the classroom!
