I hope I have clicked the right button this time!
Can I back Ian's statement about EASI's programs and add that Dr. Gardner
([log in to unmask]) from Portland Oregon has designed many
specialist Maths/ Physics software programs for the visually impaired. His
wife is a special needs teacher and Math specialist as well.
Both Ian and I have the videos related to the recent set of lectures and I
still have not managed to see them all. If anyone wants to join me in a
viewing session, it would make me put aside the time! (They are on US
format)
Best wishes
E.A.
