I have an interest in adult learners with LDDs so listening to the learners as they expressed how they wanted to be treated and included in the design of their learning was great to watch - food for thought. The resources and links at the end of the module were very helpful in confirming what I knew but, more importantly, what I didn't know or hadn't remembered.

good information

Thank you

Excellent resources to enable learners.

Mind blowing! The key notes are really useful but it is the additional links that are so useful. There are literally so many websites dedicated to supporting all learners. but I can from this it can also be overwhelming. It would be super helpful if there were a definitive list for 'starters' to get stated with.

Best thing from this is that assistive technology used well will support everyone and not subconsciously label learners with a disability or learning as ‘different’.

extremely useful resource links

Good

Informative.

Interesting

A good module

Very good to review again

Try to use a range of IT to support learning

More specifics

Very informative in highlighting the range of accessibility assistance possible in learning practices.

Informative and useful.

Great course apart from the you tube video did not work. However I had the option to read the script instead.

Though most standard applications have built in accessibility systems higher level apps can sometimes provide extra benefit, with some learners prepared to pay the prices that may be required.

good course and was particularly interested in learning about the Mercury Reader app in chrome as being able to reduce the ads and clutter to be left with just plain text would be very helpful for some of the autisic students I have worked with as they sometimes find this all very irritating

Useful intro showcasing a range of accessibility tools.

This has shown me how learners needs can be supported by using technology in ways that will show them something, and by keeping them safe and then showing them practically after.

This was a very interesting module and has improved my knowledge

Could the term assistive technology by replaced with something else ( learning technology / digital support)? The term 'assistive' implies a need for help or lesser ability. The module was useful to think about how AT can support learning and the categories presented at the beginning.

Informative

Lots of links at the bottom of this course.

Really good module - but the virtual paint is very old technology now, there has to be better in VR by now?

Its was good

It has made me think more deeply how various methods of assistive technology could benefit a wider audience of learners, aiding reduction of stigma and encouraging inclusion

Not the clearest. Module should maybe be broken down into smaller chunks with micro assessments along the way?

Use assisted technology for all learners

Useful module with great examples, a nice level of detail given and useful resources.

I really like the suggestion to use the Mercury Reader App, an extension for Chrome, removing ads and distractions from web pages. This is so useful for learners with dyslexia, low literacy skills, ESOL learners etc. In fact, I think it's useful for us all, it is so easy to get distracted, so this is a time saving tool too!

Good module but limited assessment of learning

Again, I brilliant resource to remind us about different technology to use for all abilities

Useful information to start journey on learning more about accessibility. Good links for further reading.

Assistive technology is a great way to support students/learners who have a disability whilst developing their skills in a learning environment as it stops them from being treated differently and helps with their learning as they become more engaged in lessons.

Really good information. I have downloaded the transcript and saved all of the links for further resources to look into in more detail. I am looking forward to using some of these assisted technologies with my learners.

Decent enough to explore the basics, and the list of resources does have some useful links.

Some useful ideas so that learners can stop being distracted.

I'm finding that the modules are too short to give any more than a very brief introduction - only really suitable for people who are at a very basic level. Although the links at the bottom are potentially much more useful.
