Thought this was interesting for mobile devices!

I chose to comment on Wendy's shared bookmark: Apple - Education - Special Education
I am a MAC fan, and have an iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro that I use at home. My school has access to iPads and iPod Touches. After reading this bookmark, I wish we had MAC computers for students to use! I knew that the Apple products had a lot of built in applications for disabled users, but I did not realize the extent! These products/applications address literacy issues to visual and hearing issues to physical/motor skill issues! The Inkwell feature was one I had never heard of.Inkwell is a built-in handwriting recognition technology. Students simply connect a graphics tablet to their Mac and write on the tablet using a stylus. Inkwell translates what they've written into onscreen text. I am sure additional software or devices may be required to use some of these applications, but it is a great solution for those disabled users. I wonder if the PC devices have as many of these features as the APPLE products?

I chose this article because it explained what Web 2.0 is and what implications it might have for disabled people who use the Web, particularly the use of Ajax (which I had no idea what that meant before) for interactive web pages. It also gave suggestions for ways to make sure the applications are accessible.

Jeff--like we read in one of the articles, the problem with tagging is the tag might mislead you to what you are looking for! We just demonstrated that.....You saw AJAX and thought of your favorite soccer team, but the AJAX I tagged was for the web application! HA
