The article reports on the experience of undergraduate students in the development of low-cost Assistive Technology (AT) devices for children and adolescents with physical disabilities. The "Viver Sem Limites" project aims to facilitate access to these resources but faces difficulties in acquisition. To overcome this problem, the students carried out planning, searched for articles on device manufacturing, measured the children, and gathered feedback from families to understand which devices were necessary. They then produced two cardboard chairs and a table, which were delivered to the children. The devices allowed the children to engage in activities with better posture, as well as promoting learning and stimulating the creativity of the students. The production of low-cost AT devices favored the learning of the students, facilitated social participation, and improved motor skills for children and adolescents with disabilities.

This paper will describe the activities developed during the "Track and Field for children and teenagers" program, which is part of the extra-activities for the community developed in the State University of São Paulo, located in the city of Rio Claro. This project has been going on since 1999, and in 2006, apart of the weekly classes some visits to the campus track happened. The weekly classes of this project were aimed at students from 10 to 16 years old, and they were based on pre-sportive games that involved basic motor skills such as running, jumping, flinging and throwing. The visits were aimed at students from the community schools, and the purpose was to show them the official area and materials of Track and Field, as well as to advertise among them the project itself. This way, the visits gathered a large number of participants, including the children, the teenagers and also Physical Education under graduate students, who were also able to get in contact with the Track and Field, which is a very neglected sport in the Physical Education classes in the Brazilian schools. As a result, this project is certainly something crucial for the development and education of the children belonging to the Rio Claro community. For this reason, the project might have permanence during the following years. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
