Why was LiteracyAccess Online created?
The LiteracyAccess Online site is being developed to help facilitators (parents, tutors, teachers, other interested individuals) work with children who are having difficulties becoming good readers. This is a collaborative project between the Helen A. Kellar Institute for Human disAbilities, George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia and the Parent Advocacy Training Center in Springfield, VA. The project is in the third year of development and is funded by a Steppingstones to Technology grant from the U.S. Department of Education. • What kinds of disabilities can be addressed with LiteracyAccess Online? LiteracyAccess Online is designed to accommodate both facilitators and students with learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and visual disabilities.
