6. The SETT Framework
S = Skills
E = Environment
T = Tasks
T = Tools
Adapted from Joy Zabala,
www.joyzabala.com
tablets have become the new normal
as a result - everyone wants to discuss apps.
Workbook: Refer to Appendix 1 in back of workbook – “A Brief Introduction to the SETT Framework”
Presenter says: The SETT framework was developed by Joy Zabala as a way for school based teams to focus their technology solutions for students with disabilities. The SETT is not an evaluation process but instead is a way to ensure that all the factors that lead to technology success are identified before a tool is put in place for a student.
For our purposes, since we will be speaking about adults – we will change the “S” from “student” to “skills”.
