Robot Cameras Help Disabled Students
An article in TechNewsWorld points out various assistive technologies that are being marketed to colleges to help disabled students participate in the classroom. The article focuses on the use of robotic cameras that can capture the action in a lecture.
One can expect to see more of this kind of technology used in classrooms for a couple of reasons: First, colleges may see a sharp rise in the number of disabled students because of the war in Iraq. The war, and the need to serve its veterans, will push companies to come up with technologies to assist veterans all over society — including in the classroom.
Second, colleges are increasingly sensitive to the need to accommodate disabled students — particularly online. Colleges have been trying to figure out what responsibility they carry in this area. The pressure to accommodate the disabled will likely increase in the future.—Scott Carlson
