Why Digital Learning Spaces must be accessible for all our learners, and how we can ensure that they are.

Activity: Academic talk or presentation typesInvited talk

Description

In a context where a third of learners in Scottish schools are identified as having an additional support need, where digital teaching and learning are now central components of education in Scotland, and where Scottish Government have pledged that every learner will have a personal digital device, it is essential that digital learning spaces are fully accessible for all our children and young people. In this session, Paul will explore how assistive technology can overcome barriers to learning and how digital learning spaces and resources can be designed to be universally accessible.
