Assistive Technology-Flip Camera

A Flip Camera is a great tool to use in the classroom as assistive technology. They are easy to use and our school library has two that teachers can check out and use in their classroom. Flip cameras can be used to help students who have trouble witting or speaking. Below I will list a few examples and attach a video with some more.

Flip cameras can be used for students to video a lecture given by a teacher. This will be very helpful for students who have trouble taking notes or witting quickly. They can record the lecture, watch later and write as they go. Flip cameras can also be used for students to create videos to show understanding of a concept or book they read. This works well for students who have trouble writing reports or drawing. They can uses their creativity and act to show understanding. There are many uses for flip cameras in the classroom. Please watch the video below to see more options for flip cameras.
