This is a brief recap with document link, basically a SETT framework, about a writing group project that I am currently helping the OT with. The occupational therapist had a great idea to use some of her time to form a writing group, as this is something that a small group of boys needs to work on.
She wanted to use tech to help the boys write, but came up against many obstacles. Working together, we are now making progress and seeing smiles of success from the students at the end of the period.

Make connections between the identified strategies which support the
development of reading and writing skills and the use of educational or
assistive technologies. Which tools or strategies promote independence
with reading and writing tasks according to reading research? Consider
what you have learned from the Simulation activities, Neuroscience
and Learning activities, free resources, apps and software and identify
at least five strategies which connect with the research.
