One of the important assumptions of leadership in the process of upbringing and education is the readiness of the leader to take responsibility for improving the teaching process’s quality and continuously participate in activities directly related to the improvement of educational outcomes. In other words, for a teacher to be a good leader, it is necessary to contribute to the overall development, support, and increase of students’ skills through commitment. In this paper, we wanted to examine whether primary school teachers are familiar with assistive technology used to achieve and facilitate verbal communication of children with difficulties in verbal expression, i.e., whether teachers use devices for augmentative and alternative communication in regular classes. The research was conducted in the territory of southern Serbia on a sample of 176 teachers working in elementary schools. An instrument designed for the purposes of this research was used to collect data, which consists of 7 statements. A Likert-type scale was used as an instrument for data collection, with five alternatives. The results show that almost half of the teachers state negatively when it comes to familiarity with assistive technology. Pedagogical implications derived based on the obtained results refer to the empowerment of teachers to acquire the necessary knowledge through professional development in the field mentioned above to adequately provide full support to students with complex communication needs to increase their verbal skills.

The aim of this paper is to present a project of an electric wheelchair simulator using virtual reality. For many disabled persons, the virtual reality may be very useful because it allows an optimal exploitation of remainding capacities thanks to an automatic adaptation to the evolution of progressions / regressions. A state-of-art of the applications of virtual reality to handicap and the first results obtained are presented., Le but de ce papier est de présenter un projet de simulateur de fauteuil roulant utilisant la réalité virtuelle. Pour de nombreuses personnes handicapées, la réalité virtuelle peut être d'une très grande utilité, car elle peut permettre d'exploiter de façon optimale des capacités résiduelles en s'adaptant de façon automatique à l'évolution des progressions / régressions. Un recensement de quelques applications de la réalité virtuelle au handicap est présenté ainsi que les premiers résultats obtenus.
