Empowering Every Learner: Free AI Tools to Support Students with Low-Incidence Disabilities

In today's educational landscape, artificial intelligence is reshaping what is possible — especially for students with complex learning needs. In this engaging and practical session, special educators, therapists, administrators, and assistive technology practitioners will explore a range of free AI-powered tools that can be immediately leveraged in the schools. Participants will learn how to create custom curriculum materials, design visual supports including video modeling and digital storytelling, generate adapted content, and build symbols and communication tools tailored for students with low-incidence disabilities. This hands-on session will not only demonstrate the tools but will also offer strategies for implementing them ethically, creatively, and effectively to promote student engagement, communication, independence, and access. SNOW DATE: 1/27/2026

By the end of the session, participants will:

Identify at least 5 free AI tools that can support communication, curriculum access, and engagement for students with low-incidence disabilities.
Demonstrate how to use AI tools to create individualized materials such as adapted texts, visual supports, modified curriculum, and symbol-based communication supports.
Develop an action plan to integrate one or more AI tools into their educational practice within the next three months.
