[games_access] The ALERT Project is Finally Out

[John Bannick]

Michelle,

Glad you like it.

I'll talk with our Marketing folks today and tomorrow (one is out until 
Fri) about a joint SIG/7-128 press release to folks in special education at 
the US and UK national level.

And, of course, please do mention ALERT at your special ed talk in Illinois 
next week.
It's a good example of the SIG's growing influence on the games industry.
Is your talk to NASET?

If you would suggest ALERT to your friends in AERA that would be helpful.

I'm going to point our Marketing people at the AERA conference down in NYC 
next month.
But I suspect it's too late to do much about that, other than what you tell 
your colleagues about ALERT.

I hadn't considered educational conferences, but as a geek, I'm pretty much 
focused on coding.
What do you suggest? Is there anything we could do as a SIG that would 
further accessible games in education?
And I mean that across multiple game companies, not just our outfit.

In any event, I'll ping you Friday re the SIG/7-128 press release.
It does sound like an opportunity to do some good.

Thanks,

John
