good

I have really learnt a lot in this module.

This module has made me aware of the need to think about not only the software and devices available to learners but also ensuring they have an understanding of how to use it and what to use it for

Good learning progress

as all teaching establishments need to be all inclusive, this module has some great tips

It does not help with learner with difficulties. It has an ICT approach, not what best to do to help.

Interesting outline of the key points we need to consider in the classroom with a range of abilities.

Quite useful

Useful information on assistive technology for learners.

No learning information is provided apart from a very short video, which did not cover the areas which the questions were asking about. I had to check that I wasn't missing any training information before answering the questions. For staff members who do not have an extensive knowledge of technology this was not informative.

Don't like it. There is WAY too much content on each page. Very Confusing to use.

All these training units could be condensed and into one training course instead of having all these separate units.

The content of the lesson is good but I found the wording of the first question was ambiguous.

Good way to use technology

More on how a track ball mouse could help and how study bar might help all students could be good but otherwise a nice introduction with some good tips

Very basic information but with links to more detailed resources

thought provoking - how text heavy is our approach!

The video was great but didn’t provide a link to the activities. Activity 1 : the drop down didn’t match the narrative text so was confusing. Activity 2 : using the word ‘application’ alongside soft/hardware is confusing because of the multiple meanings of the word. In this context it reads like ‘app’ rather than ‘in use’

a good module

made me think

Accessibility - hardware & software

This module had a clear information on how to best use the different forms of technology to overcome barriers to learning.

good

Gave some insight but I couldn't grasp how to influence my teaching.

Great course thanks

Suggestion of considering all media types when producing resources or schemes of work is a valid one. Text is the go-to solution for many when considering the standard of PowerPoint but even within that there is scope for the use of other media.

A couple of things that I didn't know, thanks.

Great use of some resources and how it affects users

good course

Good module with some interesting facts.

Good refresher for supporting learning difficulty

Useful info on disability types and use of media.

Great reminder to ensure that learners individual needs to be thought about when giving and planning tasks to do.

Useful insight

The information was concise and useful. The 'multiple choice' Q and A was an effective way of learning with opportunity to re-try. Downloadable resources for reference helpful also.

1. A learner attempts to write an assignment using PowerPoint slides for each section of the writing.

Result: The learner produces work but in a way that does not show it in the best light. The technology offers no advantage for the effort made.

'Caused by poor use of technology'.


(then it is caused by lack of access to suitable technology, if the technology offers no advantage for the effort made). Plus they could have produced suitable work, if they had access to suitable technology.

Good

Helpful ideas re classroom resources.

I didn't find this module as engaging as others. The video went through the subject very quickly and I wasn't 100% sure of the terminology used in the interactive quiz.

Interesting that most teachers will learn the way that is of least use to SEND

Good points to reflect on

This could have been made much better by clear examples using the assessments in the additional material.

A nice quick recap of how learners with a range of disabilities can engage more with learning

Useful to see the plot of resource types for different disabilities - might have been good to see more disabilities plotted.

Vast area in trying to think of ways to engage and encourage SEN learners and their learning within a classroom environment.

A nice starter but more examples needed

A basic understanding given

Gives an overview, but useful as a result.

Matching task should indicate what answers may be wrong on the first attempt, it leads to confusion by taking everything is wrong. Not a helpful learning experience

This is my area of need so lots here that I follow but good reminders.
