From what I gathered it sounds as if the mission of the Coleman Institute is to nurture research and development of technologies ranging from web-based to software to palm and beyond as ways to augment traditional educational approaches in working with children and adults faced with developmental challenges. Does anyone have a handle about what's going on? It struck me as something near and dear to the hearts of we who are interested in technology and literacy.
