New Information Technology in the Education of Disabled Children and Adults (Routledge Library Editions: Special Educational Needs)

First published in 1985. Information technology can offer huge benefits to the disabled. It can help many disabled people to overcome barriers of time and space and to a much greater extent it can help them to overcome barriers of communication. In that way new information technology offers opportunities to neutralise the worst effects of many kinds of disablement. This book reviews the possibilities of using information technology in the education of the disabled. Commencing with an assessment of the learning problems faced by disabled people, it goes on to look at the scope of information technology and how it has been used for the education of students of all ages, particularly in the United Kingdom and the United States. A penultimate section considers most of the contentious issues that faced users of technology, whilst the conclusion devotes itself to the immediate and longer-term future, suggesting possible future trends and the consequent problems that may arise.

Learning Difficulties and Computers: Access to the Curriculum

How could you teach music to children deaf since birth? How could you persuade an autistic child to communicate? How could you catch and hold the attention of emotionally-disturbed adolescents? Based on case studies of British practice, as well as research, this book explores how teachers can use computers to help children and adults with special educational needs to access the curriculum. It is written primarily for teachers with "special needs" students in ordinary classes in mainstream schools and colleges, as well as parents, advisors and policy-makers.
