Still another week to register for the Learning Disabilities and Accessible
Information Technology EASI course originally planned to start Setpember 6
will  now begin September 13. You can register until Thur. September 16 at
http://easi.cc/workshops/ld.htm

This month-long course is taught entirely online, any time from anywhere
and includes interaction with   instructors and fellow students.  We will
help you provide information technology systems that will be fully
accessible to students with disabilities and will enable you to fill the
requirements of current disability legislation.

 Postsecondary students with learning disabilities have unique information
 technology needs that are readily met through the use of specialized
 software, handheld technologies, and attention to Web site accessibility.
 In addition to examining the latest technologies with hands-on
 application, participants in this course will be provided with
 opportunities to deepen their knowledge of learning disabilities, as well
 as curriculum development and instructional strategies, including
 universal design in education.
 This is an asynchronous course taught entirely online. The target audience
 of the course is made up of postsecondary faculty and support staff to
 include information technologists, instructional technologists,
 librarians, and others. Participants are expected to bring previous
 professional knowledge and experiences regarding practices and strategies
 for supporting students who have learning disabilities, successful or
 unsuccessful. Learners of all style preferences, including concrete
 experiences, reflective observations, abstract conceptualization, and
 active experimentation, will benefit from participation.
