Recent years have witnessed an explosion of technological advances,
which has transformed virtually every aspect of human existence.
Prominent among these advances are assistive technologies, which
have been employed to improve the quality of life for individuals
with disabilities. In this volume, recent advances in technological
applications for individuals with learning and behavioural
disabilities are described and discussed, in a collection that
includes reviews of research, and original research reports.
Technologies in this area have provided a multiplicity of uses,
from advances in tools for basic research to text and
content-enhancements to promote learning and behaviour change in
educational environments. Discussed in this volume are technologies
for improving our understanding of eye movements in learning from
text, as well as technological applications in reading and literacy
development. These technologies are employed to promote learning
within classrooms, and also to connect learners with mentors
outside the classroom. Beyond text, the use of virtual reality has
been employed to promote understanding of complex concepts in
physics. In many cases, these technologies have been employed
effectively with students with emotional or behavioural disorders.
Also discussed are issues in technological applications, including
considerations of the most effective and appropriate uses of
technology, where research is or should be heading, and teachers'
understandings of the uses of technology with students with
learning and behavioral disabilities. Also included in this volume
are discussions of issues in learning disabilities, including
discussions of significant issues in discrepancy models, and
strategic coherence of individuals with learning difficulties.
Overall, the ten chapters in this volume aim to provide some of the
most current thinking and applications in learning and behavioural
disabilities.
