Streamlining Windows for AT Users (Assistive Technology Webinar)

Wednesday, May 3, 2023, from 10 am to 11 am PT

While there are general default settings in Windows, there are also unique default settings for various brands and models of Windows computers. Contrary to popular belief, one does not have to accept the default configurations if it is not ideal for your specific needs. While this is generally the case, it is especially true when working with assistive technology. Join Ian Ramos and Zhi Huang from Access Ingenuity to discuss some default settings that can cause challenges when working with assistive technology and possible solutions.

Learning Outcomes

  • Explain the idea of a turnkey computer for assistive technology.
  • Discuss some critical Windows default settings to change.
  • Introduce some Windows and Office settings that some may want to customize.
  • Explain some specific brand and model defaults you may need a technician to configure.
