Hi everyone, I came across this article describing the use of technology to support students with autism. The same supports, of course, can be useful to all students.
The article mentions specific content transformations and some observations which inspire some interesting learner preferences. Quote from article: "A logical next step is to apply technology to the delivery of higher education to support adolescents and adults on the autism spectrum. Technology allows for accommodations to be built directly into the curriculum, individualized programming, and support for students in new and effective ways." http://www.edutopia.org/post-secondary-outcomes-students-with-autism-dana-reinecke Cheers, - Jon. -- *JONATHAN HUNG* INCLUSIVE DESIGNER, IDRC**** ** ** *T:* 416 977 6000 x3951**** *F:* 416 977 9844**** *E:* [email protected]**** ** ** *OCAD UNIVERSITY***** Inclusive Design Research Centre**** 205 Richmond Street W, Toronto, ON, M5V 1V3**** ** ** www.ocadu.ca**** www.idrc.ocad.ca
