Impairment vs Disability
Impairments: Loss of physiological or psychological function due to an injury, illness, or congenital (inborn) condition.
Disability: Loss or limitation of opportunities to take part in society on an equal level due to social and environmental barriers.

How to reduce the effect of disability?
I am successful because I use
Assistive Technology
![Page 9: Assistive technology in Teaching students with vision problem](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051514/548797e5b479590f0d8b5481/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is Assistive technology or Adaptive Technology (AT)?
Devices designed or modified to help individuals in overcoming physical or
cognitive difficulties, impairments, and disabilities

History of Assistive Technology.
![Page 11: Assistive technology in Teaching students with vision problem](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051514/548797e5b479590f0d8b5481/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Assistive Vs Educational Technology
AT is more personal to the student
ET is more classroom-based
