of this seminar is to encourage participants to reflect on the extent to which
use of a virtual learning environment (VLE) could be considered inclusive in
terms of the Special Educational Needs and Disability Act. The seminar will be
based on a piece of research that was undertaken with several students with
various disabilities within the University of the West of Scotland The seminar will focus on how the
pedagogical application of a VLE can impact on the learning experience of
disabled students. This seminar will be quite interactive and those attending
