Slide deck from webinar broadcast 21 May 2019 Recent advances in technology have opened up communication options for people with hearing loss and deafness, particularly on smartphones. In our free expert webinar AbilityNet and Action on Hearing Loss spoke about the latest smartphone features and adaptations that allow people with hearing loss to stay in control of their technology and achieve their goals online. The webinar contained useful information for people with hearing loss as well as their friends, families and colleagues. The audience for this content also includes anyone with a professional interest in hearing impairments and assistive technology, such as occupational therapists and support workers.

Technology creates opportunities, and also barriers. In this FREE webinar, Abilitynet explored how individuals and organisations are working to ensure that neurodivergent communities are not socially distanced because of the challenges that technology and videoconferencing platforms can create. We heard from Saba Salman, Editor of Made Possible, from ward-winning film-maker Matthew Hellett whose story features in the book and from Grace Eyre and Creative Future about their work. Grace Eyre has launched an online friendship group while Creative Future has been delivering online writing groups for diverse writers.

CSUN 2014 talk by Professor Jonathan Hassell describing how Hassell Inclusion, Gamelab UK, and Reflex Arc are using Natural User Interface technologies like Microsoft Kinect to create a whole new generation of assistive technologies based around the movements, gestures and signs different groups of disabled people make. Two projects are described: Nepalese Necklace movement games for blind and partially-sighted children that encourage blind and partially-sighted children to engage more readily with their early mobility training through making the body- and spatial-awareness exercises they have to perform the controls for motivational 3D audio-games; uKinect sign language eLearning games to help people who use sign language to more easily transition into employment by enabling them to learn workplace-specific sign vocabularies using instructive video and our innovative Kinect sign-language recognition system. NB. All videos in my CSUN presentation had captions, but it's not currently possible to caption the embedded videos in this slideshare.

Centre for Ageing Better

The world is ageing rapidly. Globally, there are already more older people than children under the age of five. By 2030 older people will outnumber those aged 10. Despite this, current data systems are not fit for purpose in today's ageing world. Data on older women and men is often not collected. When it does exist, it is not fully analysed, reported or used, leading to older people being neglected in policies and development interventions. HelpAge International held a unique side event at the Cartagena Data Festival on 20 April 2015 - the only one to focus on the emerging issue of ageing. Our panel reviewed the progress and challenges of making data on older age more visible, with a view to highlighting gaps and good practice, including making national and global data more accessible. Part 1 - Global data, demographic change and inequality Chair: Danny Sriskandarajah, Secretary General and CEO, CIVICUS: Opening comments on importance of use of data by citizens of all ages. Sabina Alkire, Director OPHI: Multi-dimensional poverty measurement: What lessons can be drawn to improve age- disaggregated data? Edilberto Loaiza, UNFPA: Population dynamics and SDGs in the context of the "data revolution". Jane Scobie, HelpAge International: Global AgeWatch Index and the invisibility of data on older people.

Speaking at the ALL Digital 2020 Summit https://summit.all-digital.org/programme, this lightning talk covers the following: Coronavirus (COVID-19) changed the world. Digital instantly became a universal need, and those without it were the hardest hit. Lockdowns exposed the cost of digital exclusion more clearly than ever before, but what have we learnt as a result? This talk tells the story of what has happened to people and the frontline digital inclusion support across the UK during the first wave of COVID-19 and lockdown. We describe the emergency response taken by Good Things Foundation and our network of community and strategic partners. We reflect on the need for digital inclusion in a post Covid world, the new audiences for digital skills emerging, and how grassroots adaptation and innovation has ensured support for those who need it the most. Finally we identify priorities, and challenges, for collective action.

As Autumn sets in and many of us are now living with the impact of COVID-19, local lockdowns and social distancing as an ongoing reality, what does this mean for the UK and healthy ageing? Digital inclusion will play an increasing critical role in the healthy ageing agenda, so what have we learnt about the challenges older people and organisations now face, is there a deepening the digital divide, and how can we work differently and collaboratively to ensure more older people can maximise the benefits of being part of a digital society to meet their personal needs? Here are my slides from a recent presentation on this, given at the 'The Road to Recovery: Bridging the digital divide' webinar hosted by the Centre for Ageing Better https://www.ageing-better.org.uk/events/road-recovery-bridging-digital-divide

In the webinar you can learn how to protect yourself and elderly people often most at risk from the most common online scams that can be especially rife around the festive season. But anyone can become a victim of digital scams. They are a growing problem in the UK and criminals are using social media, email, and messaging services to target their victims. Worrying about falling victim to online criminals can, understandably, make some people reluctant to engage in the online world.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/why-teams-call-analytics-is-critical-to-your-entire-business Nothing is as frustrating and noticeable as being in an important call and being unable to see or hear the other person. Not surprising then, that issues with Teams calls are among the most common problems users call their helpdesk for. Having in depth insight into everything relevant going on at the user’s device, local network, ISP and Microsoft itself during the call is crucial for good Microsoft Teams Call quality support. To ensure a quick and adequate solution and to ensure your users get the most out of their Microsoft 365. But did you know that ‘bad calls’ are also an excellent indicator of other problems arising? Precisely because it is so noticeable!? Like the canary in the mine, bad calls can be early indicators of problems. Problems that might otherwise not have been noticed for a while but can have a big impact on productivity and satisfaction. Join this session by Christoph Adler to learn how true Microsoft Teams call quality analytics helped other organizations troubleshoot bad calls and identify and fix problems that impacted Teams calls or the use of Microsoft365 in general. See what it can do to keep your users happy and productive! In this session we will cover - Why CQD data alone is not enough to troubleshoot call problems - The importance of attributing call problems to the right call participant - What call quality analytics can do to help you quickly find, fix-, and prevent problems - Why having retrospective detailed insights matters - Real life examples of how others have used Microsoft Teams call quality monitoring to problem shoot problems with their ISP, network, device health and more.
