Increasing Awareness About Web Access Barriers - 34 views

    Amy, I really enjoyed reading the blog Web4AllLearners. This is a great blog from an ELL's teachers point of view on Web 2.0 barriers. It really explains how far behind students who come from a non English speaking country are, and how long it takes to catch them up. In my little experience as an educator, I have not worked with really any ELL students, so I didn't realize how long it takes them to catch up, and how a computer program won't help them that much, since they may come from a family that is poverty stricken and not have the technology. I thought this was a very interesting article.

    Lisa, your website about how to see if a website is accessible is so helpful. It is so easy to understand and gives such easy ways to check if a website is accessible for people with disabilities. I know some of these tips will come in handy.

Blogs, Wikis, and Text Messaging: What are the Implications for Students with Learning ... - 2 views

  •  
    This article is about how students with learning disabilities can use text messaging, wikis, and blogs to help in the classroom. Since blogging is something we have talked about in class, it's great to see how a tool like this isn't a barrier for students with learning disabilities, but how it can help them shine in a classroom.
