Article discusses BuildAbility from Don Johnston, Incorporated, which can allow educators to create curriculum-related activities quickly and easily. BuildAbility can be used to create lessons for cause and effect, basic skills, vocabulary building, reading and curriculum knowledge, all with appropriate learning scaffolds. Teachers can adapt their curriculum to meet the unique needs of different students, build students' background knowledge in a wide range of subject areas, and allow students to demonstrate their knowledge. Examples of learning applications that can be created via BuildAbility include stories with graphics, movies, text, speech and sounds, all of which can yield a comprehensive, multisensory learning experience. This paper was presented at the 2002 California State University at Northridge Technology and Persons With Disabilities Conference.
