If you need a laptop for study or need a digital recorder to record your lectures, then you may be able to loan one from the LRC. Please see Ros Platton (ros.platton@bruford.ac.uk) who can arrange this for you.


Other Resources

Load2learn can provide accessible copies to students with a defined disability (e.g. dyslexia) as long as the library owns a copy of the original text. They can provide copies in a word document, where fonts and colours can be manipulated for optimum reading, or as a pdf, which can be used with screen readers on some of the library computers so the text can be read out to you. Email Frank.Trew@bruford.ac.uk for more information.



VLE
Use the resources on the VLE provided by the Academic Support Team http://vle.bruford.ac.uk/course/view.php?id=668. In addition to specific information for dyslexic students, you can also find general advice for:
- presenting in front of an audience and using presentation slides
- using referencing to show the source of ideas and theory in your work
- critical thinking
- carrying out academic research
