In higher education systems, equal importance must be given to
differently abled students. However, not all educational
institutions have infrastructure and facilities to admit these
students even though accessibility and support for these students
is growing. There are many schemes, facilities, services, and
financial assistance available to these students along with new
assistive technologies that are making teaching and learning
processes more effective. While using new technologies in education
systems such as e-learning and blended learning, these students
need special attention as well as some advanced training and
additional features in the technology itself that better help them
become familiar with it. Understanding the demands and requirements
of differently abled students is the best way to provide them with
quality education. Assistive Technologies for Differently Abled
Students explores how to implement effective assistive technologies
and other related services for providing differently abled students
an education that is high quality and equal to their peers,
enabling them to go on and excel in their field and obtain
employment. Topics that are highlighted within this book include an
overview for the different types of diverse assistive technologies
for all types of students including students with visual
impairments, learning disabilities, physical challenges, and more.
This book is ideal for school administrators, researchers of higher
educational institutes, non-governmental organizations, assistive
technology experts, IT professionals, social workers, inservice and
preservice teachers, teacher educators, practitioners, researchers,
academicians, and students looking for information on the types of
assistive technologies being employed in education for all types of
differently abled students.
As organizations, businesses, and other institutions work to move
forward during a new era of ubiquitous modern technology, new
computing and technology implementation strategies are necessary to
harness the shared knowledge of individuals to advance their
organizations as a whole. Intelligent and Knowledge-Based Computing
for Business and Organizational Advancements examines the emerging
computing paradigm of Collective Intelligence (CI). The global
contributions contained in this publication will prove to be
essential to both researchers and practitioners in the computer and
information science communities as these populations move toward a
new period of fully technology-integrated business.
Advances in computational and device technologies, combined with
the commercial success and acceptance of 3D, haptic, and various
other media presentation devices, has increased commercial interest
in engaging additional senses within the multimedia experience.
This integration is leading to a paradigm shift away from
traditionally defined multimedia systems, and towards more
interactive Multiple Sensory Media (MulSeMedia) systems. Multiple
Sensorial Media Advances and Applications: New Developments in
MulSeMedia provides a comprehensive compilation of knowledge
covering state-of-the-art developments and research, as well as
current innovative activities in MulSeMedia. This book focuses on
the importance of Multiple Sensorial Media and its importance in
media design with an emphasis on the applicability to real world
integration and provides a broad perspective on the future of the
technology in a variety of cohesive topic areas.
