Comparison of the use of the Internet by partially-sighted and blind pupils placed in a special school environment

Rob Jones

The Royal Blind School, Craigmillar Park, Edinburgh EH16 5NA, UKrob.jones{at}royalblindschool.org.uk

A questionnaire investigation was undertaken at a special needs school into pupils’ knowledge of, and use of, the Internet following the general up-grading of ICT facilities, including the installation of a network providing high-speed Internet connection in every classroom, and prior to the development of a planned new and specific teaching programme. An account is given of the impact of the installation, including differences between those with functional vision and those without sight.
