nice video, I have seen a lot of these devices before.

Will technology I use is my tablet. I also use my CD player to help with behaviors. For assistive technology I use a talking watch. My talking watch isn't with me right now because it needs a new battery. I also have a digital talking book player, that I don't use very often because I use my tablet as my assistive technology most of the time. I also use a braille labeler to label things in Braille so that I know what they are. I also Mark things with my initials so that people do not steal them.
