Abstract
The recent changes in legislation concerning technology and transition have brought the two fields into national attention. New thinking by professionals, parents, and students about the application of technology is now required by the fact that (a) technology must be considered in every individualized education plan, (b) students are to receive services to enable them to be educated in the regular curriculum to the maximum extent possible, and (c) related services (including assistive technology) are to be considered as part of students' transition plans. This article explores an integrated approach to technology and transition in historical and current perspectives, and provides an introduction and philosophical base for the articles which follow in this special issue.
