Adapted Keyboards

Adapted keyboards are great for people with various disabilities and difficulties. There are keyboards that help students with vision impairments, limited fine motor skills, spastic movements, as well as cognitive disabilities. Many of these types of softwares can be customized for students. Overlays for the keyboard can be customized to allow students to access particular websites, ask questions, write sentences, and much more. The video below shows a young girl using IntelliKeys which is an example of an adapted keyboard.
Long story short, the keyboard can be customized to meet any students' needs!
