Effects of microcomputer technology on young handicapped children

Project ACTT. (Activating Children Through Technology) is a handicapped children's early education program (HCEEP) model demonstration, housed in the College of Education at Western Illinois University. Its major goal is to develop, implement, and demonstrate an innovative microcomputer curriculum model using affordable and practical microcomputer hardware and software. The primary target population is composed of children from birth to six years of age who demonstrate moderate to severe structural and functional handicapping conditions that prevent them from interacting with their environment. The families of these children are also major targets for intervention and are partners in Project ACTI.
