ACCESS - Introduction
Project
ACCESS (Accessing the Curriculum via Computer-Enhanced
Study Strategies) is a four-year, four-school project
designed to develop and implement a model for promoting whole-school,
systemic adoption of proven computer-enhanced study strategies as
a means of providing access to the general curriculum for students
with disabilities. So-called computer-based study strategies (CBSS)
have been researched and refined for the past ten years at the Center
for Electronic Studying, University of Oregon. Use of CBSS by secondary
students with learning disabilities consistently result in marked
improvement in all parameters of academic success. Project ACCESS
fills the need to go beyond widespread individual benefits and to
investigate how CBSS can be instituted in whole schools and school
systems on a permanent basis.
Project
ACCESS is a collaborative effort between the Eugene 4J School District
and the Center for Electronic Studying at the University of Oregon.
Intended outcomes include data on the effects of CBSS on curriculum
access, academic performance, school satisfaction and assessment participation
of students with disabilities, information about the factors influencing
systemic adoption of CBSS and a wealth of on-line and print materials
designed to facilitate replication of CBSS adoption worldwide.
Project
ACCESS - Objectives
- To improve
school readiness for school-wide adoption and implementation of computer-based
