SIG-11 Show & Tell at RESNA 2002

05/24/2002


Yes! Its Show & Tell time again!

Another year has whisked by and its time to show off the clever solutions you have created since RESNA 2001. The SIG-11 Computer Applications Show & Tell concurrent session is scheduled for Monday, July 1st, 1:15 to 3:00 p.m. Hmmm. Job Accommodations Show and Tell is Monday at 9am. Hmmmmmmm. The RESNA conference planners seem to want us stay until the last session.

The topics for the Show & Tell sessions can be adaptations to computer devices or software, tips on the use of new computer hardware or software, little-known products, unusual combinations of different devices or programs, or unique ways to use computers as assistive technology. Presentations will be short and informal. We will have 5 or 6 presentations of about 12 minutes each with time for questions.

If you would like to be part of this session, please send me a short description of the case study or adaptation you would like to present. I will combine those descriptions into a hand-out for the session. RESNA provides a computer, video projector, overhead projector, slide projector and videotape player so you may use any of those media for your presentation.

We don't want topics in the Show & Tell that should be full conference sessions or poster sessions. It is intended as a venue for exchanging tips and practical examples. If you wish to present preliminary results about a new device, it may be accepted if the presenter will swear to submit a paper the following year. Kevin Caves would like me to remind certain people that he is still waiting for the papers you promised him. You know know who you are. Next year we'll start naming names.

Thank you,
