Session content: What you can expect from your NeuroKnowHow sessions.

First Session: We establish your current level of computer skills with you in an open discussion where you tell us your learning and course/workplace needs and we offer our expertise to help clarify them. The tutor helps you to prioritise your requirements and to identify the learning methods that will make best use of your AT equipment.

Following sessions:

• Introducing software
• Showing how software can be applied to studying and employment tasks
• Providing multi-sensory techniques to find the learning method that best suits the client
• Incorporating referencing and note-taking strategies, using open source referencing and bibliography software
• Revision strategies using AT and other software, websites and hardware
• Personalised “video-notes” are created for each session and stored on the clients machine to review when necessary

 

Our aim by the end of each session is that you will be able to show the trainer how specific equipment works . Feedback is always encouraged so that future sessions can be adapted to your learning needs.
