The International Conference on Information Technology- New Generations (ITNG) is an annual event focusing on state of the art technologies pertaining to digital information and communication. The applications of advanced information technology to such domains as astronomy, biology, education, geosciences, and health care are among topics of relevance to ITNG. Visionary ideas, theoretical and experimental results, as well as prototypes, designs, and tools that help the information readily flow to the user are of special interest. The conference features keynote speakers, the best student award, the PhD student forum and workshops/exhibits from industry, government and academia.
Working with Hidden Disabilities is a brief overview and idea manual for campus and online college faculty. The program covers cognitive disabilities such as LDs, ADHD, and head injuries; disorders such as ADHD, OCD, and Asperger’s Syndrome; and selected mental health and psychiatric disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality, post-traumatic stress, conduct disorder, and schizophrenia. Each segment explains common symptoms seen in electronic or classroom work (whether a student is documented or not), explains what accommodations are generally used to provide equal access and why they help, and gives ideas for universal design both on campus and online that can improve comprehension and performance for all students in a course.
