Kilparrin Teaching and Assessment School and Services in Adelaide is using Tapit interactive displays from Exertis ProAV Australia to support teaching of special needs students.
During a 30-day trial period of the 42-in displays, arranged by technology consultant Leading Digital, Kilparrin staff witnessed students practice through trial-and-error to get the device to do what they wanted.
According to educator Lindsey Patti, even a short trial with a single student was powerful enough to encourage the school to invest in the technology to improve educational outcomes.
“I was able to learn a great deal about the student’s digital literacy skills and ways we can build on those to develop other skills,” Patti said.
