Go to individual webcast pages to access archived materials, transcripts, audio files.
Webcasts are presented in collaboration with NCDDR's partner, the Independent Living Research Utilization (ILRU) project of The Institute for Rehabilitation Research (TIRR) in Houston. Each webcast is approximately one and a half hours long, moderated by a member of the NCDDR staff and conducted by other staff members or expert consultants. The webcasts do not have a video component but provide audio with real-time captioning. Technical capabilities include the display of accessible PowerPoint presentations, handout materials, and other information formats.
During each webcast, viewers are able to submit questions, by e-mail or by toll-free telephone, to be answered by the presenter(s). An archive of webcasts is maintained by ILRU that includes information about the presenters; handouts and/or presentation materials; a transcript; and the webcast .ram file (uses RealOne Player).
