KidsHealth Kids Kids' Health Problems What do Tom Cruise, Whoopi Goldberg, General George Patton, Walt Disney, Winston Churchill, and Alexander Graham Bell all have in common? These famous people have all been successful despite the fact that they had or have learning disabilities (LD). Having a learning disability doesn't mean you can't learn. Some of the most creative thinkers of all time were diagnosed with LD. People with LD aren't slow or stupid; they simply have trouble learning in certain areas, such as reading, writing, math, or communication.

That's because doctors, scientists, and teachers have learned much more about the

Music Technology and Curriculum Access accessing and enriching music learning Fruits of Study Home Composition Performance Singing ... Email Home This website explores ways in which music technology can improve access to music for everyone and enrich music lessons for pupils and teachers, alike. It builds on the personal research of Audrey Podmore, UK music teacher and educational technology consultant.

It records my personal investigation of ways in which technology can improve access to music for all pupils and, in particular, for those with disabilities. It considers two important questions: 1) Does the technology necessary to address each and every area of the music curriculum exist?
