>Greetings,
>
>I have been asked to research the feasibility of setting up
an assistive
>technology class that might be offered as part of a masters
degree program
>in rehabilitation counseling. The audience would be graduate
students
>preparing for careers as rehab counselors who will have
limited or no
>prior experience with assistive technology, and the class
should cover the
>topic thoroughly.
>
>Does anyone know of a suitable textbook or courseware? Any
suggestions
>would be appreciated.
