Infinite Potential Through Technology
We are pleased to announce that ZED has purchased a trial subscription to Infinitec (Infinite Potential Through Technology) for the seven member districts. The subscription is active now through June of 2012.
Infinitec is the technology program of United Cerebral Palsy of Greater Chicago (UCPGC). The mission of Infinitec is to advance independence and promote inclusive opportunities for children and adults through technology. This is a non-profit, member-based organization currently supporting Illinois and Kansas. Current grant opportunities have also connected Infinitec with Minnesota, Georgia and California.
A password-protected Web-based portal (myinfinitec.org) offers educational staff access to a range of curriculum supports and professional learning opportunities 24/7. There are 130+ video presentations from experts in the field and strategies for implementing technology with at-risk and special education students. Online quizzes for CEU credit, resource and research links, pre-made differentiated lesson plans, summarized instruction sheets on how to use common assistive technology devices, and alternative activities are listed by subject.
Log on to myinfinitec.org and follow the instructions provided below. Each teacher will develop their own unique password after registering and receiving a confirmation from Infinitec. We encourage you to take full advantage of this free and extensive resource! Infinitec Registration Instructions
