You’ve seen the marketing blurb before – ‘How Product X changed my life’. I had such a revelatory experience when visiting a site hosted by the University of Southampton and containing a set of open resources to help staff and students gain the most from using technology.
As an example, the home page contains an infographic of tips for optimising a Google search. Of the 12 tips, I had only used the first two in the past. Did you know that you can search the URL, find news items from a particular geographic location or search for a range of numbers/prices?
The site has a range of guides to support inclusive learning with many links and suggestions to consider.
Lexdis also has excellent resources for users of technology with a range of difficulties including blindness, colour deficiency, hearing loss and visual acuity to name a small selection.
If you visit the site and find it useful, please share your discoveries with us.
Thanks for this. It looks really useful.
