Description
There can be little doubt that the rapid technological developments that have characterized the decades since the middle of the 19th century have given great scope for improving the quality of life of disabled people. Disabled Students in Education: Technology, Transition, and Inclusivity reports on 15 research projects aimed at improving the educational prospects of disabled people. Through its discussion of three main themes-technology, transition, and inclusivity-this book aims to be of interest to disabled students, their parents and teachers, and the people who run, and set policies for, their educational providers.
