This past year one of my 10th grade students was diagnosed with a rare and severe internal disease. Her health quickly deteriorated and she was placed on an IEP / Other Health Impaired and accommodations were made to properly cope with the situation. Her condition has physical limatations related to her diagnosis of POTS. She can become lightheaded and has experiences episodes of fainting. The student is allowed to stand, as needed. Use a chair with arms if prolonged standing is required. Use the bathroom
m as needed.Have drinks readily available in the classroom (water / Gatorade). Extended time is also made available for projects and tests. |

Describe at least one way you have used technology to meet the needs of a student with a disability in your art classroom. Be sure to identify or describe the specific technology and the student's disability. Share your response in the threaded discussion.
I have utilized technology to help students organize their thought and summarize personal critiques of their own work. Students have used technology to establish a documented series of the process used to create their work. This record of sequential events allows student with ADHD to calmly reflect on the steps used to build their work. |

ADAPTIVE: I have had a visually impaired student in my art class. It was a challenge that we both we eager to confront. He was filled with such amazing passion and potential and I was impressed with his ultimate enthusiasm!. I created a flat 8 x 10 inch magnification screen for hi on 4 6 inch legs. The screen allowed him to see a more predominate view of his drawings while being able to fit his hand underneath the magnified window and draw. There were also other issues with locating materials. I cut out shape specific decals for him to feel and identified what tool was in what drawer. It was a success story; he did very well in visual arts! |
