Tweet Reach: Using Twitter to Increase Information Exchange in People with Communication Disabilities.

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

With as many as seven per cent of Australians having a physical and/or communication disability and being disenfranchised from information, Twitter offers a valuable form of social media allowing short segments of text communication that bypasses impaired speech. This project will evaluate the impact of training designed to increase the use of Twitter for information exchange in people who have little or no speech and who need information for better inclusion, empowerment and evidence-informed decision-making. Outcomes will inform policies and practices in training vulnerable populations to use social media for increased information exchange and will promote inclusion of all people with disabilities in social media campaigns.
