Day 9 Research and more research!

July 14, 2011
Our group spent the majority of today's class researching possible assistive technologies that would enable the students with disabilities in our profile to access the project of creating a blog. This was fairly time consuming but also a great learning experience. As Carl mentioned, we are certainly not experts in assistive techonology; however, I feel we have grown so much in this area over the past two summers. I was also able to share my knowledge of appropriate apps for the specific disabilities that I had learned from the webinars that I participated in throughout the past year.
Since we only have a couple of more days to meet before we present this project, Christine set up a Skype account today that would enable us to chat online. After today's work, I feel that we can possibly finish this project tomorrow and then have Monday to review and add any finishing touches.
