| Research Abstract |
This research project intended to study and develop the supporting systems for students with disabilities in higher education institutions using space collaboration systems (SCS) : the interactive video teleconferencing services covering all over Japan.
1) We found SCS very useful for disabilities : mobility difficulties, the visual impairment and the hearing impairment. We succeeded to produce a series of Faculty Development Seminars through SCS in which sign language interpreters and subtitles were shown next to the lecturers on the same screen. Those seminars were made into a series of contents which help all universities in Japan.
2) We succeeded to provide an SCS training course, multimedia educational resources, information on our website regarding the issue.
To support the students with disability in higher education, we developed to 1) Partner with organizations on SCS training courses and other activities, 2) expand websites for faculty use, 3) develop models for a new pedagogy, and 5) create teaching materials. We hope that these measures improve and strengthen our support for the students with disability Teaching materials developed for faculty to support handicapped students.
