> Hi, the link is broken into 2 lines when we receive email from the list. Copy the first line and paste into the address bar of your browser. Then go back to the email and copy the 2nd line. Go back to the browser's address bar, make sure you are at the end of the line, and paste the rest of the link then press enter. It worked for me.

> Perspectives in Assistive Technology is a Winter Quarter Stanford

> development, and use of assistive technology that benefits people with
> disabilities and older adults. It consists of semi-weekly in-person
> discussions; lectures by notable professionals, clinicians, and

> Assistive Technology Faire.

>
> Last call for student project suggestions - If you eagerly anticipate
> approaching deadlines, this is your time - the last call for student
> project suggestions!
>
> The course is in need of additional candidate projects for students to
> pursue. You are strongly encouraged to submit project suggestions that
> address a real challenge experienced by an individual with a
> disability or older adult who lives in the local community that is not
> adequately served by existing commercial products. (Perform an
> internet search to verify this.) Your project suggestions should
> target challenges including performing tasks such as working,
> learning, moving, communicating, accessing home products (including
> computers), and daily living activities such as cooking, cleaning,
> creative expression, and pursuing happiness. Project suggestions that
> explore design concepts that improve diagnosis, therapy, and
> rehabilitation are also welcomed.
>
> Identify and describe the challenge rather than imagining a solution.
> At the minimum, submit a one-sentence description of the problem. The
> most important requirements are: 1) the availability of a local person
> with a disability or older adult who would benefit and work with the
> student team, 2) no risk of harm or injury to the user, 3) a suitable
> solution isn't already commercially available, and 4) the suggested
> project must be of an appropriate scale, size, and complexity.
>
> Please do this as soon as possible so I'll have adequate time to
> consider all submissions, edit approved entries, and post them. The
> deadline is Wednesday, December 1st. If I accept your project
> suggestion, you will be invited to
> "pitch"<http://web.stanford.edu/class/engr110/pitches.html> it to the
> class on Thursday, January 6th. If a student team selects it, you will
> have the opportunity to offer your advice, direction, and expertise in
