The Rehabilitation Learning Center

The Rehabilitation Learning Center (RLC) is a multimedia learning environment for persons with spinal cord injury and disease designed to inform and empower such persons with information needed to become an active participant in the rehabiliation process.

Emerging technology in the field of computer-based learning, which incorporates graphics, text, video, and sound offers new opportunities to enhance the learning experience. Seeking to capitalize on this technology for the benefit of individuals undergoing rehabilitation, the RLC will create a computer-based rehabilitation environment designed to educate individuals with acute or chronic spinal cord injuries and empower them with the knowledge necessary to make informed choices regarding life after spinal cord injury.
