Accessibility is for everybody. If we create a solution for one student, it will extend to a whole classroom. That's what personalisation of technology provides, a chance to create solutions for individual students that will also be applicable to others, and to you as well.
On this page we provide links to the resources mentioned in the webinar, along with a PDF of the slides and a copy of the webinar.
