Limitations of Assistive Technology

AT is not always available or accessible to students with disabilities. 32.14% of studies identified difficulties in accessing AT.
The high costs and precarious financing of AT represent significant limitations. 25% of studies reported financial constraints.
There is a lack of training in using AT for both students and teachers. 42.86% of studies highlighted insufficient training for teachers in using AT.
Negative attitudes, insufficient assessment and planning processes, and difficulties in managing equipment
Existing research on children with disabilities incorporating AT is underdeveloped, and generic research often excludes this population.
