Accessibility in Education

Friday, August 6 2010 9:00AM to 12:00PM 

Join Sarah Herrlinger, Sr. Manager, Special Markets at Apple Inc. for a
workshop on accessibility and assistive technologies in Education.

This session will explore the array of built-in accessibility solutions
available in a range of Apple products. You'll learn how these features can
be used to address the needs of those with sensory, learning and other
disabilities, and how they can be combined to create truly personalized
solutions for those with special needs. For the first half of the session
we'll look at features of the Mac running Mac OS X version 10.6 "Snow
Leopard" including VoiceOver, the screen access software for the blind built
into every Mac. And in the second half, we'll focus on the Accessibility
features of the iPod touch and iPad as well as 3rd party applications to
reach a wide array of learners.

Who Should Attend?

Campus leadership, Deans, Instructors, faculty and staff interested in
issues related to accessibility and assistive technologies.
