I'd love to hear some comments/insights as to how your working relationships are with the faculty and teachers at your institutions. Do you find that many of them see adaptive computing as "a necessary evil"? Do you find it difficult to persuade teachers that time and energy spent on technology accommodations are worthwhile?

Or have you found a way to work with faculty members such that they respect what you do and actively seek your assistance?

A colleague and I are doing a presentation on this topic and I'd love to have feedback to help us formulate our approach. Thank you!
