Publisher's Synopsis
The power of the microcomputer to serve education is often greatly enhanced by the special purpose devices that can be interfaced to and controlled by it. This is particularly so in catering for individuals with special needs. The proceedings of this conference explore the educational application of tools and devices such as videodisc, Lego construction kits, concept keyboards, modems, speech input/output, and music synthesis. Wide-ranging papers describe projects and their implications for students, teachers, and researchers in elementary, secondary and tertiary education.
