Lets hope that Esther's student is visually impaired or has a mobility problem - or perhaps Meares/Irlen syndrome - rather than plain old phonological dyslexia. Because in the latter case the Revealweb supplier may not legally be able to help them. (I sit on the Policy Advisory Group of Revealweb, mainly to promote the interests of the dyslexic people that the PAG would like to have as part of its constituency when the law allows.) This we have discussed on DIS-FORUM before. DIS-FORUM members can do their bit - another bit, no doubt - to help reading impaired people, who need their print in a different format. Please sign up now to the Right to Read Campaign at www.dyslexia.org.uk/r2r.php. It only takes a few clicks and keystrokes. I would hope that most disforum members would like to be associated with it's objectives. You'll see there a list of organisations in the Right to Read Alliance, including the BDA and led by RNIB. If you can speak on behalf of your institution, (Student Services, Access Centre, Disability Office etc) it would also be great to have a long list of other supporting organisations, particularly from the voluntary and public sectors, to add impact. Email me personally ([log in to unmask]) or follow the instructions. Thanks in Anticipation for your support for the Right to Read. Regards Ian Litterick Support the Right to Read Campaign.
