Special education programs in the US are on the rise, with 30% growth over the last decade, and becoming an umbrella program, encompassing both disability related programs and supplementary education programs. Educators who work with high needs student populations have turned to technology like mobile and desktop application that allow them to enhance their student’s experience, helping their students learn and achieve at the highest possible level.

Although the technologies exist, teachers struggle to find technology that address the needs of their students investing time scouring the internet. DiscoverEd is a web application that connects you directly to inclusive technology that fits the needs of your student populations.
