Zoo Brings Curricula to Students With Disabilities Using Tablet PCs

Tags: pcs, xp, windows xp, database, microsoft windows, pc, data

Overview Chicago's Brookfield Zoo wanted to broaden the reach of its CONNECTIONS program, which helps students build on classroom learning by conducting field research and other activities at the zoo. Over one thousand students with disabilities often have difficulty participating in programs that involve animal observations and data collection on paper. The zoo teamed up with Quilogy to design a solution for use on Motion Computing Tablet PCs running Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition. The solution employs built-in accessibility features of Windows XP to enable students who have visual, hearing, or physical disabilities to participate. The students' data is stored in the zoo's database and made available later for in-depth study in the classroom.
