I am very
interested in looking at how educational institutions have used, or are
thinking of using technology in innovative ways in engaging with disabled staff
and students in order to generate feedback about policies, procedures
and practices that impact on their everyday environment.
In my experience, some students (in particular
younger learners or those not used to college/university life) for example, may
not feel confident in attending focus groups or meetings, they might not
feel that they want to speak up in committees but might quite
comfortably express their view on a social network where they have anonymity and
freedom to express themselves.
I am interested
in hearing from anyone who has experience of use of VLE's, wikis or other social
networking approaches to engage with disabled users about their experiences
at college/university as part of their
DED.
Can you help or
do you know of any examples of where this approach has been
adopted?
Many thanks
Margaret
