Digital Decisions
- Some students mentioned simplicity, skills, suitability and cost as a deciding factors.
- All students talked about their decisions being influenced by time considerations regarding use of assistive technologies, training and social networking applications.
…when I got all my software in autumn last year, and they said: "You need to have your training on this" - as you quite rightly have said - I did feel like I was doing 2 courses and that was, frankly, too much. I had to stay with my old bad habits because I just didn't feel I had the time to take out to learn something new to help me. It was a vicious circle, really.
