Ed Tech Software

Once considered Assistive Technology, much of the software adopted and supported by BVSD is now UDL (universal design).



Did you know that Inspiration has been replaced with:

​MindomoPoppletNoodle Tools

*Try with students who have writing organizational goals.



Did you know that Type to Learn has been replaced with:

Typing Pal and free options, including Rapid Typing Tutor
*Typing is a skill all students must know these days!



And that Wixie has replaced Pixie:

Wixie

*Wixie is a cloud-based publishing and creativity platform that lets students share what they know through their art, their voice, and their writing.


once logged into Wixie, click on "activities" (next to "library")  --->  templates  ---->  graphic organizers





Trialing this software can often times remedy the problem, or at least bridge a student's output to match their knowledge.
