Job Accommodations to My Computer | Proloquo2Go | Self-Determination | Wisconsin BPDD

In this video, I show how I accommodated my home computer with assistive technology devices to help me do my job and use my computer for personal use. Here are the different types of assistive technology that I talk about in the video: — Enlarged keypad with built in mouse functions. — Keyguard, which helps my finger hit the keys accurately. — Word prediction software to help me type faster. — Eye gaze system which I will be getting soon that will allow me to control my computer by using my eyes. I didn’t mention it in this video, but I use a communication app on my phone called Proloquo2Go. I'm able to pre-program what I want to say or type things out if I'm having a conversation. Here’s the link to the video where I talk about Proloquo2Go: Here are some definitions of words used with this video: — Assistive technology is any device, software, or equipment that helps people work around their challenges. — A job accommodation is an adjustment to a job or work environment that makes it possible for a person with a disability to do their job. Accommodations may include specialized equipment, modifications to the work environment or adjustments to work schedules or responsibilities. — Self-determination is where YOU decide your life For information on Self-Determination, visit: The Self-Determination Channel is a project of Wisconsin Board for People with Developmental Disabilities:
