SIG 11 members:

The concept of having a SIG 11 Show-n-Tell session at next years RESNA conference (similar to what SIG 14 has been doing) was discussed during our business meeting at RESNA '98. Many members felt this would be a useful way to share ideas and compare the approaches that others are using in the assessment/recommendation process. This would be a 90 minute concurrent session in which 5-7 presenters have approximately 15 minutes each to share with the group one or more case studies involving computer applications and persons with disabilities. I am looking for an individual who would be willing to organize this session (i.e. submit a concurrent session proposal, contact some individuals who would be willing to present at the session (we already have 4 people who have volunteered to present), act as chair for the session, to introduce speakers and keep things moving). Please contact me if you are interested in organizing (or helping to organize) the Show-n-Tell session or if you would like to present a case study at the session (no need to contact me if you already signed up for this after the business meeting).

Thanks!
