Summary

Although 5-10% of pupils have a special educational need of some kind, little attention has been paid to how the internet can support the education of this significant section of the school population. This book looks closely and critically at current thinking on the role the internet plays in the multi-faceted areas of SEN, drawing on the experience of various major names in the field. It contains practical guidance on the underlying pedagogy of harnessing technology this way, its limitations and how these technologies can assist in meeting the aim of educational inclusion for all.
