Hi there. Hoping this isn't too far off topic.
We've just started a new series of disabled student diaries where we're
following 3 students for their first 4 weeks at university.
One of the students that this list may be interested in following is 18
year old Andrea. She's visually impaired. The technology she's hoping to
use at uni is JAWS on a samsung netbook and she's also put in for a GPS
enabled device to help her around. She started nearly two weeks ago and
as yet her Disabled Student Allowance hasn't arrived meaning she's still
not got her technology.
It's all here:

There's an introductory video of her as well as week one of her diary so
far. Week 2 is published tomorrow and subsequently on Wednesdays.
