CASE STUDY: JOSHUA


TASK: Please read the hypothetical case study about a student we will call "Joshua" that we will use as the basis of our discussion. This is a case study used by Joy Zabala at a Ready! SETT! Go! Selecting Assistive Technology Online Workshop held back in 1996. Recognizing that you are experts in this area, you have been selected to consult as a team on this particular case. From your readings and utilizing the SETT framework you will be addressing the following 4 Questions (each will be a separate discussion thread). Please reply to others' suggestions and comments so that by next week we can compile and complete a “detailed” SETT framework (i.e., as a team you are dialoguing about this student so that a completed SETT framework/matrix can be completed).

THE STUDENT
What do you know about Joshua? What do you still
need to know? How will you find out?

THE ENVIRONMENT
What do you know about the environment? What do you still need to know? How will you find out?

THE TASKS
What do you know about he tasks? What do you still need to know? How will you find out? What might be included in Joshua's system of tools?
