Adaptive computer technology is widely understood to be useful for many of
the more visible disabilities.  Many people do not recognize its usefulness
for people with learning disabilities.  In fact, often members of this
population, themselves, are fearful of technology and resist trying it.

However, more and more specialists recognize that both mainstream computer
technology as well as some adaptive computer technology originally designed
for other disability groups can also be beneficial for people with many
kinds of learning disabilities.
