Free Resources to Support InclusionThe Regional Support Centre has been working with a number of supported institutions exploring the growing range of free and open source assistive technologies to support inclusion in FE and HE in Scotland. In March 2009, Coatbridge College students investigated a range of free enabling technologies available via the AccessApps initiative and demonstrated resources that would help them in their studies. Creating an Accessibility PolicyIn this video case study Margaret McKay of the RSC Scotland South & West talks to Errol Luders of Coatbridge College about how they approached the accessibility policy on their website. Craig Mill of the RSC Scotland North & East region demonstrates various accessibility technologies. A new PDA in Resilience ManagementThis case study highlights the 'mission critical' role that online Learning Technology and Business Systems have played in the development and delivery of an e-learning course from Coatbridge College. The new level 9 Professional Development Award in Resilience Management encompasses teaching, learning and research techniques and is delivered off-campus via Blackboard to students throughout Scotland. The students are currently working in a wide variety of industries and agencies, including Police Force, Fire and Rescue, Local Authorities, NHS and the Private and Voluntary sector. |
