Re: Art Room Technology

One thing not mentioned yet is the impact that technology can have for art
students with disabilities. A child who cannot hold a pencil can create art
independently on the computer, using available movement from a finger, head,
shoulder, etc. A child who is unable to speak can express themselves through
a multimedia creation including synthesized voice.

I'm looking into the very topic (how can computers and related assistive
technology enable students with physical disabilities to independently
access the art experience?) for my thesis research project.

Just another avenue that should be considered, again emphasizing the
incredible impact that technology can have in the art room.
