Announcer: The e-Learning Lingo Podcast.
Mary Kay Lofurno: Good afternoon, and welcome to the eighth episode of “The e-Learning Lingo Podcast Series.” My name is Mary Kay Lofurno, and I'm the Marketing Director here at SyberWorks and your host today.
Last week, Dave Powell, our SyberWorks Documentarian, talked about “nesting”. This week he will talk about an assistive device called a headpointer. So I ask you, do you know your e-Learning Lingo?
[theme music]
Mary Kay: Hi Dave. So tell our audience what is a headpointer?
Dave Powell: A headpointer is a device that attaches to a user's head and allows him to control a pointer or screen cursor by moving their head. The devices are generally used by individuals who do not have full use of their hands and feet.
Mary Kay: Thanks, Dave.
Dave: My pleasure. Talk to you soon.
Mary Kay: This is Mary Kay Lofurno, Marketing Director at SyberWorks. Thanks for listening to episode eight of the e-Learning Lingo Podcast.
This week, Dave Powell defined the meaning of headpointer.
The episode eight podcast audio and transcript will be posted on the e-Learning Lingo Podcast blog. Please feel free to join the discussion by leaving us your comments by phone, web-based voicemail, or blog posting. We look forward to hearing from you.
Next time on the “e-Learning Lingo Podcast,” we will talk about another term used in learning design. Until that time, have a great week.
