Extractions: Karen Milchus The Developing Accessible Science Experiments project is funded by a grant from NSF (HRD-9700150). During 1997 and 1998, Georgia Tech's Center for Rehabilitation Technology will create resources to help science teachers make computer simulations of lab experiments, computer-based lab equipment, and standard laboratory equipment accessible to students with disabilities. The project staff will develop resource materials that can be used by teachers to train themselves on the use of adapted lab equipment and adapted lab simulations. Many teachers are developing simulations of laboratory experiments to use as supplements to chemistry and physics laboratory experiments. Although simulations are not a replacement for fully accessible labs, they may be a good alternative for students with severe disabilities who would not otherwise be able to participate in the laboratory. The Accessible Science Experiments project will research existing laboratory simulation software and develop a comprehensive a list of these simulations. The project will test a sample of twenty simulation programs with computer access software to be sure that the simulations are fully usable by students with disabilities. Finally, the project will develop step-by-step instructions on any customization necessary to use assistive software with each simulation.

Extractions: March 1998 PN Home PVA Home PN Online Library Not unlike Jerry Seinfeld, Stephanie O'Leary has opted to retire from the field of assistive technology while at the top of her game. I have happily taken on the position of "periodic contributor" to this column and will attempt to maintain her high standards for breadth and quality of information. The emphasis will remain on computer access and integration issues, but I'll no doubt venture periodically into related technology areas. The most unusual aspect of a column like this is the time-lag between "date written" and "date read." I'm writing these words as chilly January winds whip across Lake Erie and dump snow by the shovel-full onto the gray western New York landscape-not to mention the driveway outside my suburban Buffalo home. The Super Bowl is coming up this weekend, the new Pearl Jam album is due in a few weeks, and the Winter Olympics are just around the corner. All these events will be old news by the time you read this in March. My most challenging task is to provide timely information that meets your needs. I hope you will help by identifying topic areas of interest, giving feedback about previous columns, and/or posing specific questions to me via e-mail or fax.

Extractions: internet: chlunney@ecuvm.cis.ecu.edu Much assistive technology for people with disabilities has been developed in the last ten years or so, but the developers of such technology usually quit as soon as they have provided access to computers. But to chemists, physicists, and engineers, that seems to be only half the job: computers are great laboratory tools, and if you connect a suitably adapted computer to instruments and sensors in a laboratory and provide it with suitable data acquisition and data analysis software, you have a great way to make careers in science and engineering more accessible to people with disabilities. Robert C. Morrison and I first became interested in the problems of disabled students in the laboratory in 1977, when Richard V. Hartness, a blind chemistry student, brought them to our attention. We decided to use high technology to develop a flexible, microcomputer-based aid that could give visually impaired college science students independent access to accurate measurements performed with scientific instruments. Our research group's efforts (which were funded by the U. S. Department of Education) culminated in a luggable, 42-pound, talking, whistling, industrial-strength data acquisition computer that cost $8000 a copy and was custom-built from expensive industrial modules.

Scholarship In The Electronic World on Human Factors, and the Virginia Council on assistive technology. Publishing, byEdward Fox, professor of computer science at Virginia tech and director http://www.technews.vt.edu/Archives/1997/Dec/97500.html
Extractions: BLACKSBURG, Dec. 15, 1997 "Scholarship in the Electronic World" is the topic of a spring seminar series sponsored by Research and Graduate Studies at Virginia Tech to address issues, opportunities, and conflicts that have arisen as universities try to make the best use of the Internet to share the results of research. Since Virginia Tech has become a leader of the move to publish theses and dissertations on the Internet , the university has taken the lead in organizing the program. These documents represent the results of graduate student research that have in each case been approved by committees of faculty advisors. The university has received funding from federal agencies, academic organizations, and communication businesses to develop software and education programs to help universities make hundreds of thousands of theses and dissertations available electronically. While Virginia Tech is the only university so far to require master and doctoral degree students to submit their final work electronically, universities across the nation are testing Tech's programs and sharing the donated resources. seminar series will address some of the issues. To facilitate continued discussion, the presentations will be made available in a proceedings document on the Internet and in hard copy. Details, follow-up notes, and, possibly, audio material will be available at
