instructional tasks. Another form of assistive technology is speech recognition software. This type of assistive technology allows the students to operate a computer by speaking to it.

Part of this is when children are learning to develop fine motor skills for example doing jigsaws. This allows them to turn the shapes to work out what part fits in which section of the jigsaw. This then helps them to develop further into gross motor skills which allows them to be able to stand and do the jigsaw. (Education Scotland, n…

1. Why is it important for educators to know about systematic learner variability? It is important for educators to know about systematic learner variability because the concept of the "Illusory Average Student" does not exist; "cognitive neurosceince has shown that there is no average student" (DL Series No. 1, 2012). Therefore, it is important for educators to know that student ability varies widely both within and between subjects and concepts for students, and even more importantly,…
