Technology has become more and more a part of our everyday lives and in some special cases, technology has improves the quality of life for some. In the case of Owen Cain, a 7 year old boy who is severely disabled, the iPad has improved his life remarkably! The iPad has been used in many cases for people that have special needs. Individuals with speech, mental, and physical disabilities have used the iPad to improve their lives. Technology has been the main focus of my Computer Applications II class this school year, and this article is a prime example of the progress technology has had on the 21st century. The designers of the iPad probably would have thought that the iPad would be used for medical purposes, and in the end help improve the lives of thousands.
There aren't many multimedia devices designed for those with disabilities and special needs, and the iPad has become one of the few devices that actually can be used for medical purposes. Technology continues to make our lives better everyday and as consumers we must take advantage of the technological advances and make positive progress for in search for better life!
