Hi, I'm Dr. Dan Leech. I'm an Associate Professor of Special Education at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville. In the past, I have had the opportunity to travel countries such as Russia, Latvia, China, and most recently as a Fulbright Scholar in Ukraine. To train teachers and to help people who have disabilities. I volunteer for the "His Hands Reader" project because I believe that this cost effective project will improve the quality of life for many individuals who are currently marginalized, Particularly those who are deaf and hard of hearing. In addition, I believe that this project will help improve literacy rates around the world and to help countries achieve their millennium development goals. I'm fortunate to work with a team of talented colleagues at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville. Our team includes faculty, graduate students, and visiting scholars. We are planning to conduct research that will illuminate how this technology will help people with disabilities. We invite you to join us.
