I am a Senior Research Fellow in the Institute of Educational Technology (IET) at the Open University (OU) in the UK. I have both an externally funded research role and an internal consultancy role on all issues to do with disabled people’s access to education, especially eLearning. The OU has currently over 13,000 disabled students.
Current core areas of interest and activity are:
- Access to mathematics (and other symbolic languages) on the Web
- Learner Analytics and Accessibility Metrics
- Content personalisation for accessibility
- Metadata Standards supporting systems approaches to web accessibility
- Social Software approaches to accessibility
- Accessibility in eAssessment
- Remote control of teaching labs promoting access for disabled students to the science and engineering curricular
