Unlocking Potential Inclusive teaching and learning Communicating Issues and Inspiring New Practice

Unlocking Potential Things are seldom as they seem Click to view….

Unlocking Potential Things are seldom as they seem. Dyslexic, deaf, blind, paraplegic, learning difficulties, unknown?

Unlocking Potential A new way of seeing things "One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things." – Henry Miller. TechDis resources for a new way of seeing things: WatchWords SimDis

Unlocking Potential A new way of doing things Do less work but create more accessible resources. Make a podcast for a learner (without speaking). Make a podcast with a learner (without installing software). Make a learner make a podcast (without using a computer). Make a video (without a video camera). Make mobile learning (without buying software). Make a highly accessible learning object (without technical know how). Make a VLE (without a technician). Give poor readers reading help (without being there). Give poor spellers prompts (without being there). Define vocabulary (without being there).

Unlocking Potential Do less work but create more accessible resources Don’t format documents – structure them using heading styles instead. It saves you time and makes a much more accessible resource. Hair background – formatted or structuredformattedstructured

Unlocking Potential Make a podcast for a learner (without speaking). DSpeech – free and portable text to speech and text to MP3. Uses built in Windows XP voices. Hair demo. Or RoboBraille high quality free service – send with text attached to

Unlocking Potential Make a podcast with a learner (without installing software). Portable Audacity. The Welsh podcast primer – meeting, greeting and departing. Good morning, good afternoon, hello, goodbye, good night, take care, see you later etc.

Unlocking Potential Make a learner make a podcast (without using a computer). Free phone message to MP3 service with Gabcast ( Phone channel number: 15867# the ‘pound key’ = hash channel password: 123# Leave a message

Unlocking Potential Make a video (without a video camera) Camstudio (free software) Understanding a chequecheque Or use digital images with Windows moviemaker. Tying a tie. Or try Wink (runs from a memory stick)Wink

Unlocking Potential Make mobile learning (without buying software). Make audio, Camstudio or Wink resource and Bluetooth it to a PDA or phone. And if Bluetooth is a pain use IR beaming And if beaming doesn’t work try a card reader Or synchronising the device Or fold a sheet of A4 cleverly (PocketMod)…cleverly

Unlocking Potential Make a highly accessible learning object (without technical know how). Xerte learning object. Launch it. Create folder Fill in text > Browse to media Preview > add new page and repeat Save Upload folder to VLE

Unlocking Potential Make a VLE (without a technician).

Unlocking Potential Give poor readers reading help (without being there). NaturalReader – discrete media player style interface DSpeech Portable, runs from usb memory stick WordTalk Custom made to bring speech to Word – adds a new menu bar.

Unlocking Potential Give poor spellers prompts (without being there). LetMeType is free word prediction software that can have a customised vocabulary imported.

Unlocking Potential Define vocabulary (without being there). WordWeb5 is GreenWare that will define, pronounce, provide synonyms and point out homophones.

Unlocking Potential Strategic approaches Teaching styles and preferences are valid but learner entitlements are legally protected. Staff training on disability issues should focus on core business not fuzzy feelings. Accessibility does not belong to support specialists any more than inclusion belongs to disabled people. E-learning is not the solution but it provides a wide suite of solutions.

Unlocking Potential TechDis resources For managers Senior Manager Briefings For practitioners Accessibility essentials For trainers Staff packs, WatchWords, SimDis

Unlocking Potential Conclusion E-learning supports the inclusion and DDA agendas by creating alternative (i) resource types and (ii) learning experiences. E-learning allows the learners to contribute to constructing learning… so what will you do next?
