# Computers and the Disabled

The computer revolution was great, but it presented real challenges to disabled people who found new barriers to accessing information. This program looks at several solutions including a talking word processor called IntelliTools, two screen readers - JAWS and OutSpoken, Buddy Button, Tash Mini Keyboard, Discovery Switch, EasyBall, Thumbelina, and Cyberlink. Also covered are techniques for building web sites that are user friendly for disabled visitors. Originally broadcast in 1997. Copyright 1997 Stewart Cheifet Productions.
