Do you feel that actually using the assistive technologies has helped your learning and do you feel that it affects it?
I would say it helps my strain injury, but it hinders my learning. Because, my injury is the kind of thing that if I wanted to, I could just ignore and not use the assistive technology. I could do the things I needed to do quicker.
You think the assistive technology slows you up in your learning?
Yes, it does. And, that's why I never really got to grips with Dragon 8 too much, because it was quite good, but I didn't have the time. It was only now and then that I had an essay, and when I did have it, I had to get on and do it. I didn't really have time to learn it… Maybe, if I'd organised my life better, I could have learned how to use Dragon 8 in the time that I was doing my essay, but then it didn't seem as important. Maybe Dragon 9 is easier to use.
