Seminars at Hadley Presents:
Let the Games Begin! Accessible Games on Your iDevice
Date: Tuesday, September 6, 2016
Time: 3:00 PM CDT; 20:00 GMT

 

Are you looking for some game playing fun? There are so many choices — where do we begin? Word games, card games, adventure games and more — all on your iDevice!

 

Join Seminars at Hadley as Judith Dixon, editor of the book, "Anyone Can Play: Accessible Games for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch," shares some fun diversions that a host of blind gamers have put together.

 

Ed Haines, Hadley instructor and member of the Seminars at Hadley team, will moderate this 60-minute presentation. A question and answer session will be included as part of the seminar. This seminar is audio-only, and space is limited. Please register only if you know you are available to attend so that others are not closed out. Register now for Let the Games Begin <http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=10207074&msgid=808914&act=GE9S&c=225701&destination=http%3A%2F%2Fhadley.edu%2FSeminarDetails.asp%3Fsid%3D335> !



 

 

Seminars at Hadley Presents:
Geography: Talking Travel: Explore Alaska!
Date: Tuesday, September 20, 2016
Time: 11:00 AM CDT; 16:00 GMT

 

Glaciers, active volcanos, whales, bald eagles, three million lakes, eighteen hundred islands, nine national parks, thousands of miles of untamed wilderness and Denali — the highest peak in North America. Alaska has it all! 

 

Join Seminars at Hadley as we explore the “Land of the Midnight Sun” with SueEllen O’Connor, Hadley Ambassador and Alaska State Blind Services Coordinator, and Hadley instructors Debbie Good and James Thoune, who have toured Alaska. Our virtual trip will include: cruising along the Inside Passage; exploring the wilderness by train and boat; and discovering the cultures of the indigenous Alaska Natives. Hear about the USA’s 49th state that is more than twice the size of Texas. Come join our adventure!

 

Dawn Turco, Hadley senior vice president, will moderate this 60-minute presentation. A question and answer session will be included as part of the seminar. This seminar is audio-only, and space is limited. Please register only if you know you are available to attend so that others are not closed out.

Back-to-School Prep When Your Child Has Vision Loss

For millions of American parents, the end of summer is the time of year to take children shopping for the latest fashions and to stock up on pencils, paper and other school supplies. For parents of blind or visually impaired elementary, middle and high school children, the back-to-school "to-do" list gets a bit more involved. With a little planning, however, it doesn't have to be daunting. Hadley's focalpoint blog discusses preparation tips in its August 2016 entry. Read ABCs of Back-to-School Prep and get ready for the school year <http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=10207074&msgid=808914&act=GE9S&c=225701&destination=http%3A%2F%2Fhadley.edu%2FFocalPoint.asp> .
