The overall design uses black, teal, gray, and gold accents.
As technology becomes more accessible, O&M Specialists must make decisions about when and how to use apps during instruction.  This interactive session will explore how technology can support, but not replace, core O&M skills.  Participants will engage in real-world scenarios to evaluate when apps enhance travel skills, and when technique should take the lead.  This session will also include a brief overview of a few commonly used apps that can support travel when integrated appropriately and safely.

Goal 1: Develop effective decision-making skills for when and how to integrate apps into O&M instruction
Objective: Participants will identify situations in which technology supports O&M skill development and situations in which traditional techniques should take priority

Goal 2: Increase awareness of commonly used travel-support apps and how they work
Objective: Participants will feel encouraged to explore and evaluate these tools within their own O&M sessions
