Announcing a New Writing Cohort

 

Do you have students who struggle to write at any level?

• Difficulty generating ideas
• Organizing thoughts
•  Using correct grammar and spelling
• Expressing Ideas Clearly
• Physical motor barriers

Clicker is an educational tool designed to support writing for students who need extra help. Clicker provides features such as word prediction, text-to-speech, and visual and auditory support to help users build sentences and improve literacy skills.

Investing in educational technology is a significant commitment. To support this process, the SC Assistive Technology Program (SCATP), in partnership with Crick Software, is offering SC school districts the opportunity to join the SC Clicker Pilot Cohort for the 2026–2027 school year.

During the Pilot Cohort, you and your colleagues will:

· Implement Clicker in your school district at no cost.

· Receive assistance from SCATP and Crick Software staff to successfully implement Clicker in your district.

· Participate in a group of SC school districts that will share ideas, insights, and resources.

Being part of this cohort will allow you to observe student patterns, outcomes, and success. To learn more about the Free SC Clicker Pilot Cohort, please attend one of the 30-minute informational sessions on May 6th at 12:00 PM or at 3:00 PM.  Please invite a member of your IT team to attend this meeting with you.
