  • Really Useful
    Really Useful Technology For Students with Learning Disabilities Students with learning disabilities often have difficulty with skills others take for granted, such as reading, listening, spelling, writing, or organizing information. Appropriate computer software and assistive technology can make those tasks easier and allow a student to feel a sense of accomplishment. Feeling successful with technology can greatly boost an individual’s self-esteem and may even make neces- sary tasks enjoyable. However, not all software or technology is appropriate or useful for students with learning disabilities. The more care parents and teach- ers take to fit the software to a student’s specific need and learning style, the more useful the software or tool will be for that student. 1 It may help to keep the following suggestions in mind when choosing software for students with learning disabilities: ¡ The software should address the skill the student needs to learn and have levels that allow the student to progress. ¡ Computer displays should not be cluttered. Students with learning disabilities usually concentrate better with few distractions. ¡ Instructions should be straightforward. Long, wordy directions at the beginning of the program are frustrating to most students with learning disabilities. ¡ It should be easy for the student to correct mistakes. ¡ The program should be easy to enter and exit. Ideally, the student should be able to operate the program independently. ¡ The software should be fun and motivating with topics of interest to the individual. ¡ It should be easy to save the work. Students with learning disabilities should be allowed as many sessions as necessary to complete the project.

Library, Archival and Information Studies, University of Ibadan. E-mail: [email protected] 2Librarian, National Mathematical Centre, PMB 118, Abuja. E-mail: [email protected] Accepted 24 May 2018 Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) are fast becoming acceptable and useful in all sectors of human endeavor; students are seriously integrating the use of PDAs in their academic activities. The use of PDAs by students can be influenced by their perception on the ease of using PDAs and the perceived usefulness of PDAs for their academic activities. The study investigates perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of PDAs on use for academic activities by undergraduates in University of Ibadan. Descriptive survey design was adopted for this study. Population consist 3,905 undergraduate students of the Faculties of Arts and Sciences in University of Ibadan, Nigeria. The purposive sampling technique was used for this study; three departments with the highest number of undergraduates were purposively selected for the sample to be a representative of the total population.

  • Alphasmart Providing a Smart Solution for One Classroom-Computing “Job”
    AlphASmArt Providing a smart solution for one classroom-computing “job” A n E d u ca t i o n C ase S t u d Y James Sloan Visiting Research Fellow April 2012 | E-CS-010 NNOSIGHT www.innosightinstitute.org NSTITUTE ExEcutivE SummAry n 1992, when personal computing was in its relative infancy, Apple Computer engineers Joe Barrus and Ketan Kothari, later joined by Ketan’s brother, Manish, launched a successful ieffort to produce and market “smart keyboards.” With these word-processing devices, the entrepreneurs targeted elementary school teachers who found personal computers unsatisfying for the tasks that they were trying to do. Joe, Ketan, and Manish’s new company, called AlphaSmart, Inc., developed and marketed a disruptive innovation that capitalized on the extraordinary growth of personal computing during the 1990s. The company developed a device, also called the AlphaSmart, which was a portable, battery- powered, word-processing keyboard with a small LCD display. It functioned essentially like a simple digital typewriter, but it could be plugged into an Apple Desktop Bus (ADB)* port for transferring text into a computer’s word-processing program for further editing or printing. The AlphaSmart was successful in schools because it focused on a critical job elementary school teachers were trying to do that desktop computers were not doing well. Although desktop computers were powerful and versatile, they were complicated for many teachers to deploy, expensive for schools to own in large numbers, and distracting to students during the composition process. Teachers wanted a simpler, less expensive device that would enable students to spend more time learning to type and compose without the distraction of myriad other functions, the scheduling limitations of computer labs, or the demands of complex deployment and maintenance.
