A number of our students click very fast and without apparent reason or cause. To help these students learn mouse skills, 3 approaches spring to mind: 1 use a specialist mouse that prevents rapid clicking. 2 disable left and right click and develop fine motor skills: http://www.pmld.org/leaves/index.html, 3 design an activity that responds at a rapid speed: http://www.pmld.org/click/index.html IE-PC only for now. Each of these has much to recommend it. Our solution 3 is not responsive enough, you may need to set your mouse double click to very fast, (which may be a bug, as double click doesn't seem popular on the web?), and for best results move the cursor off the screen. It can work with good kit at about 4hz, but we have rubbish old kit. Does anyone know of a very fast online clicking activity? or would anyone care to suggest a method, ie flash, java, as faster than html/javascript. an additional bottleneck, would be sound, any ideas to reduce the response time, please? thanks Jonathan the accessibility angle is admittedly not intellectual, rather perhaps limbic?
