Matt highlights Global Accessibility Awareness Day on May 20, along with how to find resources and events to get involved with through: www.globalaccessibilityawarenessday.org.

Gayl Bowser joins AT in 3 to talk about how to start an AT team and keep it going, how the QIAT can be used in the professional learning of AT teams that are in any stage of development, and way to get reluctant administrators on board in supporting your team.

Nationally recognized AT expert Dr. Joy Zabala joins Matt to discuss the relationship between UDL and AT, how AT has shown through the pandemic, and the evolution of the SETT Framework.

In this special extended episode, Matt talks with State AT Coordinator Sharon Jones from Virginia Commonwealth University about how she has seen AT being utilized with students in remote and hybrid settings across the Commonwealth, lessons AT providers can take with us moving forward out of the pandemic and back into classrooms, and how the Virginia Assistive Technology Network's resources can support educators and students now and in the future.

Matt discusses new text prediction features coming to Microsoft Word in March 2021 and how this tool can be used to support students with disabilities.
