Notas do Editor
- Our history Approach to teaching inclusion Activities Beyond the degree…staff development, institutional support Challenges and opportunities
- Design Meets Disability, written by Graham Pullin, a colleague at the University of Dundee – an inspiration for an approach to innovative, quality design that embraces rather than marginalises people with specific needs Example topics – social networking and digital game playing by older people; a system to enable joke telling for non-speaking people; supporting web developers identify and repair accessibility barriers
- The photo shows the User Centre – a drop in facility for older people to come and develop ICT skills in a relaxed, friendly environment. They become research partners and expert consultants on ageing and technology, and participate in student learning experiences. We also have links to a variety of disability groups, in particular people with severe speech and physical disabilities, who work with us on research and teaching activities.
