Alternative communication

& access to information

Congratulations!

ACAI 2003 Seminars were completed

Many thanks for presented topics and discussion

the seminars and guidance for student presentation (2cu)

information may be defined as the characteristics of the output of a process; these characteristics enhance knowledge, being informative about the process and its input

hierarchies of processes, linked together, provide a communication channel between each of the corresponding functions and layers in the hierarchies

fundamentally information is not modality-specific (i.e. not tied to its form of presentation, be it visually, as sounds or whatever)

but the end user (destination, addressee) for whom the information exists, is a person who is trained to manipulate through modality-specific notions (which are formed by percepts)

therefore, within ‘information technology’ modal aspect of information maybe more essential for development of relations between person and computer *
