FOCUS ON CAMPUS: Down Syndrome, Caregivers, and Technology

Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

The UTEP Occupational Program is looking for caregivers of individuals ages 12-21 with Down Syndrome who are willing to discuss the use of technology.  Graduate students Vanessa Buckler & Katherine Pearson join us  to tell us how their research may help develop apps that both caregivers and children can use to improve communication through technology.  If you are a caregiver and are interested in participating in the study, email Katherine at klmcfarlane@miners.utep.edu.
