  • "Toolbelt Theory"
  • Services to those labeled "disabled"
  • the style is, of course, medical, with evaluations, and prescriptions, and implementations
  • None of this builds independence.
  • students must learn to assemble their own readily available collection of life solutions.
  • Toolbelt Theory
  • Toolbelt is designed to
  • Break the dependence cycle
  • lifespan technology skills
  • Limit limitations
  • Empower
  • Prepare students
  • specifically ordered version of Joy Zabala's SETT Framework (Skills, Environment, Tools, Tasks).
  • At the most basic, I need to know if I need to cut wood or join it
  • whether I am cutting the wood in my garage or in a forest
  • Environment
  • Skills
  • wood to burn or use in a cabinet
  • Am I strong? Am I exhausted? Is my right hand broken? Am I simply a danger to myself and others
  • finally
  • which Tools exist
  • SETT is thus re-conceived as TEST:
  • Environment
  • Skills
  • Tools
  • Essential things must be in place to do this effectively:
  • Up-to-date technology
  • They must be preparing students to use the technology that will be around in the next decade
  • Ubiquitous technology
  • he mobile phone, the PocketPC, Google-based solutions, Microsoft-based solutions, Firefox-based solutions, are less expensive and everywhere at the start.
  • Why is school, especially in the US, the least technologically equipped environment many of your students will be in all day?
  • Why does school actually prevent students from developing their own – perfectly reasonable – even lowest-tech solutions… such as baseball caps
  • Choices of hardware and software readily available
  • Students must make their own selections
  • Start small at young ages,
  • Willingness to allow failure
  • Encourage all students to try differing methods of reading?
    • Of writing?
    • Have assessment method choices?
    • Allow choices of seating?
    • Allow schedule flexibility?
  • Instructional tolerance
  • Accepting loss of classroom control
  • Emphasizing “what” instead of “how”
  • Does it matter…
    • “how” a book is “read”?
    • “how” a paper is “written”?
    • “how” a student “gets to” a math answer if the concept is understood?
  • Privilege methods?
  • student with reading issues
  • might watch a video of a Shakespeare play, listen to an audiobook of Joyce, need a simple computer reader with annotation
  • use a reading pen
  • high-tech literacy support program

  "toolbelt theory" -- "Toolbelt Theory is based in the concept that students must learn to assemble their own readily available collection of life solutions. They must learn to choose and use these solutions appropriately, based in the task to be performed, the environment in which they find themselves, their skills and capabilities at that time, and the ever-changing universe of high and low-tech solutions and supports."

  Ira Socol talks about building student independence by helping them understand which AT tools will help them learn and function better. It's similar to Joy Zabala's SETT framework, but Socol uses the TEST approach (Task, environment, skills, tool)
