Moving to Inclusion: Opening doors to people of all abilitiesPeterboroughCPD
Since 2008, the presenter has worked as a project coordinator with the Active Living Alliance for Canadians with a Disability (ALACD), a national organization, which promotes increased health and active living opportunities for the 1 in 7 Canadians who have a disability.

Through the lens of his own experience, the presenter will suggest that meaningful participation in physical activity is a powerful catalyst for individuals of all abilities. He will elaborate on ALACD projects and resources designed to inform physical activity providers about simple adaptations which facilitate inclusive participation. While awareness programs tend to focus on physical activity practitioners, the presenter will suggest that capturing the imagination of those with a disability is critical if we are to create a culture of greater inclusion.

A protocol analysis session can capture several types of Ethernet errors including local collisions, remote collisions, late collisions, CRC/alignment errors, long and short packets, and jabber. Local collisions occur on the local segment and are considered normal up to 1% of overall traffic. Remote collisions indicate a problem on another segment. Late collisions mean a collision occurred after 64 bytes were transmitted, possibly due to a NIC that cannot hear properly. CRC/alignment errors above 2-3% of traffic suggest a problem with packet transmission. Long or short packets are outside the normal 64-512 byte frame size and may be caused by a failing NIC. Jabber occurs when a NIC continuously transmits garbled bits for over 1,518
