Adapted keyboards is a great accommodation for students who have disabilities such as vision impairments, limited fine motor skills, spastic movements, as well as cognitive disabilities.
There are many types of adapted
keyboards. Some of these examples include:
- Expanded keyboards
- One-handed keyboards
- Mini-keyboards
- On-screen keyboards
One example of an adapted keyboard
that I found is called IntelliKeys.
