Abstract
This paper reports on the impact of the implementation of a totally hands-free work station based on an automatic speech recognition (ASR) user interface management system in a school for disabled children with learning difficulties. It focusses on two major areas of impact —firstly the general effects of the introduction of a speech input computer system into the organisational context of a school, and secondly the educational benefit to the student users which arose from the introduction of the system.
