3rd April 2003 - York, UK
This workshop will examine the use of Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and issues that arise for disabled students. Emphasis will be placed on how PDAs can benefit disabled students, and issues of usability and accessibility will also be covered. The workshop will also report on how the Internet, VLEs and other technologies can be accessed using PDAs.
Practical applications of PDAs in an educational context will also be looked at; each delegate will receive a PDA and a range of software that can be used for education. In addition a set of workshop materials will be provided for each delegate should they wish to run a similar workshop in their own institution.
