Abstract:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:To test whether people with cognitive-linguistic impairments following traumatic brain injury could learn to use the Internet using specialized training materials. RESEARCH DESIGN:Pre-post test design. METHODS AND PROCEDURES:Seven participants were each matched with a volunteer tutor. Basic Internet skills were taught over six lessons using a tutor's manual and a student manual. Instructions used simple text and graphics based on Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5. Students underwent Internet skills assessments and interviews pre- and post-training. Tutors completed a post-training questionnaire. MAIN OUTCOMES AND RESULTS:Six of seven participants reached moderate-to-high degrees of independence. Literacy impairment was an expected training barrier; however, cognitive impairments affecting concentration, memory and motivation were more significant. CONCLUSIONS:Findings suggest that people with cognitive-linguistic impairments can learn Internet skills using specialized training materials. Participants and their carers also reported positive outcomes beyond the acquisition of Internet skills.
