Dear All, Greetings from Eyeway Helpdesk!
Follow below the Daily Eyeway Alerts: 1. The concept of inclusion is considered important in all fields nowadays. Inclusive education for differently-abled children is one such attempt to include children with various kinds of disabilities in normal schools. The idea is that through inclusive education, differently-abled children will get an opportunity to mingle with normal children from an early age. It will help increase their confidence level, improving their competency, and they will be able to boldly express their talent before others. This will ultimately lead to bringing the differently-abled into the mainstream at at early age. For more click here: http://m.thehindubusinessline.com/opinion/mix-and-match/article8098665.ece 2. SINGAPORE — In the past, Mr Danny Chia, who is partially visually impaired, had to be accompanied by a friend to help him out with basic transactions, such as cash withdrawals, at an automatic teller machine. If he was alone and had to seek a stranger’s help, he had to tell the person how much money he wanted to withdraw and also be assisted with keying in his PIN number. Today, Mr Chia, 56, will no longer need such help, thanks to POSB’s “talking ATMs”.
