20TRA341 Zoom for SNAs
In this session, we will review Zoom in detail and you'll walk away feeling confident that you can use it to support students remotely. We'll also discuss a few other pieces of technology that could be used.
We will have two SNAs in the session (Primary & Secondary) to discuss their experiences of using technology.
Finally, we will have some time for Q&A to help you in any areas you are unsure of.
Personal Bio:
Having Dyslexia and ADHD, James very much understands the learning challenges that face students. After struggling throughout school due to his own learning challenges and dropping out of University, a second chance at college came his way and he was able to turn it around, earning a first-class honours degree from University College Cork and a Masters in Disabilities Studies from University College Dublin.
Since then, he has gone on to complete a Marie Curie Fellowship at UMass Medical School in Boston, and he proudly won Young Researcher of the Year at the International Conference on Computers Helping People with Special Needs (ICCHP) in Austria in 2018. UrAbility, his current company, was recently announced as the winners of the United Nations Zero Project award - being the only Irish company listed in the top 75 innovative practices, out of 450+ nominations from 100+ countries.
Here's a quick video giving an overview of UrAbility
