E-learning and Disability in Higher Education

Reviews / Votes

"In this second edition of Seale's go-to text, she accurately re-imagines the disability and e-learning landscape in accordance with shifting paradigms, moving away from a role-based emphasis towards a stakeholder approach that emphasises a more socially inclusive perspective. This book should be read in its entirety by anyone working in e-learning or accessibility, and provides a useful resource for anyone teaching in higher education today."-Dr. Simon Ball, Senior Advisor at Jisc TechDis

"This book makes a powerful argument to transform accessibility into a more participatory and inclusive concept. Drawing on Freire's notion of critical pedagogy, Seale offers a critical, detailed analysis of research surrounding accessibility practice and shows that there are alternatives, such as participatory research, that foster 'digital inclusion' and increase agency for people with disabilities."-Dr. Alan R. Foley, Associate Professor of Instructional Technology, Syracuse University

"Seale provides a very comprehensive yet personalized, practical approach to the topic of e-learning, disability, and higher education. This is an important read for instructors, researchers, disability service providers and, of course, students with disabilities in higher education."-Dr. Robert A. Stodden, Director and Professor, Center on Disability Studies, University of Hawaii at Manoa
