The Role of Computer Conferencing in Delivery of a Short Course on Assessment of Learning Difficulties.
Dwyer, Eamonn
International Journal of Rehabilitation Research, v14 n4 p337-39 1991
A pilot project at the University of Ulster (Northern Ireland) used the CAUCUS computer conferencing system on the CAMPUS 2000 education network to train teachers to assess young adults with severe learning difficulties. Despite problems with student attrition and system failure, computer conferencing was felt to be a useful medium for providing tutorial support. (JDD)
