For Inclusive Distance Education</font></h3>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The Network for Inclusive
Distance Education (NIDE) is a collaborative project intended to expand the
paradigm of distance education to include users of adaptive technologies.
Many people benefit daily from distance education; reduced travel time and
costs allow the user to dedicate more time to educational pursuits. The medium
of electronic learning is also a particularly important learning tool for
people with disabilities for whom transportation issues can be a concern.
As well, many people with disabilities who are unable to hold and/or read
a book can access electronic text easily through adaptive technologies. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The benefits for people
with disabilities provided by distance learning opportunities are great, but
access to traditional modes of distance education has been restricted. Traditional
distance education tools, like synchronous communication tools such as ICQ
or IRC, and interactive learning modules, are not currently accessible to
users of adaptive technologies. </font></p>
