Beschreibung
The book explores how the learning environment influences academic participation for students with physical disabilities at universities. The aspects explored include the access to information, attitudes, effective teaching and assessment methods. Social model theory of disability is central. It explains that it is the society which disables people with disabilities. The book recommends that university administrations should promote more sensitization programmes such as seminars, sporting activities, workshops and forums in order to increase the level of awareness of the needs, aspirations and capacities of students with physical disabilities with a view to enhancing their acceptance, participation in learning activities and integration in the university communities.
