The latest amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 (IDEA), encouraged implementation and development of technology in the classroom. Congress suggested that the use of technology (including Assistive Technology Devices) within the classroom would improve access to the general curriculum for students with special needs. This move was intended to remove barriers for these students and improve the ability of teachers and administrators to better address the diversity of their needs. Utilizing these alternative solutions in technology are accommodating students with physical, sensory and cognitive impairments.
With the increase of technological implementation across most academic settings, there are often questions that arise as to the effectiveness and validity of it's use.

The fact that a whopping 91% of all American families own at least one text enabled cell phone and from the rural Maasai to the slum dwellers of Mumbai, people are acquiring mobile phones by themselves – without the government subsidies.

Because adolescents, in particular, represent the largest demographic group of users, EdStar's TSMS technology is the right fit. Additionally, referring agencies have up to the minute monitoring capabilities.
