Yesterday, some folks from Imagine! met a group of students in a University of Colorado Engineering School class. For several years, Imagine! has collaborated with the CU’s Engineering Department to create a variety of assistive technology projects that aid increased independence for the people we serve. Each semester, Imagine! presents Professor Piket-May’s freshman engineering class with a list of assistive technology projects to choose from. The students work in groups of four on a project of their choosing. The meeting yesterday was to give the students some context for the projects, and included a fun exercise designed to demonstrate the challenges faced by people with I/DD that may not be immediately apparent on the outside. We look forward to another successful round of projects!
