Academics are highly important, but one could argue that functional life skills are just as. I think that functional life skills are important to teach to all students, not just students with disabilities. Students with disabilities may have a difficult time learning simple functional life skills. That is where the Function Skills system comes in.
I think that this system seems very useful. It is user friendly, has high-interest content and is age appropriate. Often times it is difficult to find software that teaches functional life skills that is age appropriate and can be used with adults. I also like how the videos and visual displays provide sign language/ visual representations. This is very beneficial for students with various disabilties, epecially those with severe intellectual disabilities.
