2. Assess the current state of the Assistive Technology Act and what influences the act is having on students with disabilities.  
   
3. Explain your position on fostering assistive technology to provide full inclusion of students with disabilities in education, employment, daily activities, and in their communities.
4. Evaluate how the Assistive Technology Act will impact changes to your teaching and learning.
