    This document discusses the evaluation of three assistive technology tools - Discovery Education’s Text Reader, Chromebook for typing, and flipped lesson videos created with Screencastify - using a provided rubric. The rubric effectively evaluated the tools based on how it establishes the user, location of use, and goal of the tool. While the rubric's rating scale was generally good, "Accomplished" could be replaced with a term like "Competent". The rubric worked well for evaluating the text reader and Chromebook but could be improved by adding criteria for self-pacing capabilities for evaluating videos. Overall, the rubric is suitable for evaluating many types of assistive technology devices.
