Useful websites

This is quite a limited list of useful sources. Given the growth of materials now available electronically and the ease of use of search engines the opportunities to find information relevant to a specific topic are huge. However, perhaps there is the need to add a caveat regarding use of electronic sources and resources – users need to consider how much these have been subjected to rigorous quality monitoring and quality control and then treat them accordingly. The short list reproduced below should not raise issues with regard to this matter.

In the United Kingdom Skill: National Bureau for Students with Disabilities published a number of very useful booklets on many aspects of developing policy and supporting students. The Skill Journal (published three times per year) also contained many articles of interest and value. Unfortunately, Skill was wound up in April 2011 with some of its functions being taken over by the Disability Alliance (.uk). In Ireland, the Association for Higher Education, Access and Disability publishes a similar range of interesting and useful booklets (AHEAD, East Hall, UCD, Carysfort Avenue, Blackrock, Co. Dublin tel 01 - 7164396) The NADP’s “Journal of Inclusive Practice in Further and Higher Education” is also helpful; for example, the first two issues covered the themes of autistic spectrum disorder and the second on neurodiversity.

JISC and LTSN ( note that after May 2004 LTSN and ILTHE were subsumed under the Higher Education Academy – HEA) do give attention to policy and provision for students with disabilities - see for example JISC Senior Management Briefing Paper No. 15 (September 2001) Disability, Technology, and Legislation - available from JISC at Genesis 3, Innovation Way, York Science Park, Heslington, York or phone 0117 954 6850 or e-mail : assist@jisc.ac.uk) The LTSN Generic Centre (The Network Centre, Innovation Close, York Science Park, Heslington, York YO120 5ZF) has published a folder which includes a booklet on assessment (see reference to McCarthy and Hurst above) whilst some of the subject centres have produced more subject specific items ( for example the Geography/Earth Sciences and the Leisure and Tourism Subject Networks have both published special issues of their newsletters. Copies might be available from the subject centre bases at Plymouth and at Oxford Brookes Universities respectively)
