It is pronounced (ablee-cation).<\/p>\n This business units has been developed as a follow on to our work conducted with Matthew Goniwe School of Leadership and with Microsoft SA on the training of educators and learning support personnel within the Gauteng Department of Education.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”#Learn-more” button_text=”Learn More…” _builder_version=”3.5.1″ custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”16px” button_text_color=”#ffffff” button_bg_color=”#ff4d54″ button_border_width=”0px” button_border_radius=”100px” button_letter_spacing=”1px” button_font=”|700||on|||||” button_letter_spacing_hover=”1px” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_vertical=”10px” box_shadow_blur=”30px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(255,77,84,0.24)” custom_padding=”14px|34px|14px|34px|true|true” animation_style=”zoom”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.10″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.5.1″]<\/p>\n \u00a0These training courses were conducted in May and early June 2017 and addressed the usage of the wide range of Microsoft\u2019s accessibility features, and how these features can be adapted to meet the needs of individual learners. Part of this project was the development of a Benchmarking Model, which provides a basis for selecting an appropriate MIX of the features for a specific individual and the TRAJECTORY for how these should be introduced for a learner.<\/span><\/p>\n Arising from this project was the realisation that this is a largely untapped market and that there are very few other organisations, if any, who are directed at the creation of digitally literate special learners. However, there are organisations addressing the market of assistive devices, but these organisations do not address the software alternatives for accessibility.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”3.5.1″][et_pb_fullwidth_image src=”http:\/\/ablecation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/KeyboardPic-1.jpg” _builder_version=”3.5.1″ animation_style=”flip” animation_delay=”600ms” animation_speed_curve=”ease-in”][\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Features” _builder_version=”3.5.1″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.5.1″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.5.1″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.5.1″ inline_fonts=”Arial”]<\/p>\n “For all types of disability or impairment there is a way to improve access to computing”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”1280px” use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”3.11″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.11″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_blurb title=”Vision ” image=”http:\/\/ablecation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/visi.jpg” icon_placement=”left” image_max_width=”100px” content_max_width=”1100px” image_max_width_phone=”50px” image_max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”3.5.1″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”18px” header_font_size_phone=”15px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_line_height=”1.6em” body_font=”||||||||” body_font_size=”15px” body_line_height=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”1.6em” body_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone” border_color_all=”rgba(0,0,0,0.18)” border_style_all=”dotted” border_width_left=”2px” custom_padding=”|||24px” custom_padding_phone=”|||4px” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” animation_direction=”left” animation=”off”]<\/p>\n This course focuses on persons who are visually impaired from moderate to profound.
