In some preparations for a presentation I came upon some resources some of you may like to check out:
Online Digital Instruments are a terrific resource for motivating students in the domains of access, writing, conversation, and more.- Try scratching behind singing the ABC’s, or your phonemic awareness tongue twisters.

Use these for:
- a break
- as a musical instrument
- as a background to a friend saying the abc song
- as a background to a friend reading their latest story or poem
- Playing and then journaling about how it felt to play
- Anything you can think of

…the President of The Pennsylvania State University, Graham Spanier, that is.
Penn State Board of Trustees meets; President Spanier’s remarks
Friday, July 10, 2009 12th Paragraph Down about Proloquo2Go and Samuel Sennott
Seriously, being a PhD student at The Pennsylvania State University is one of the most fantastic experiences of my life. The individuals I am surrounded by are simply phenomenal. From four AAC faculty to experts in Special Education, Psychology, and Computer Science, to the amazing students in the programs I am connected to, it is simply terrific to be here. Reading Dr. Graham Spanier’s remarks about the work I am doing and my place in the Penn State community made me smile even wider.
I know how lucky I am in all of this. I will take these opportunities being presented to me and work as hard, smart, and long as I can to serve individuals with special needs, as well as their families and the people who support them.
