I currently have a student with a visual impairment that prevents him from drawing what he conceptualizes. His ideas are very detailed but he cannot draw much beyond stick figures. It was very frustrating for him. I have told him to just draw his idea to the best of his ability and we discuss it afterward. He feels better about himself and the drawing class in general. |

- Describe at least one way you have used technology to meet the needs of a student with a disability in your classroom. Be sure to describe the specific technology and how it assisted the student with a disability......
- Our district uses a platform called CANVAS for lesson communication and submission. I have a student that works from home most days due to extreme anxiety issues. I email her links to videos that cover the topics I cover in class. I also provide word docs. with instructions and guidance on the topic covered (ie 2-point perspective drawing techniques) and she submits images or her artwork via the platform. It is not ideal but much better than not receiving work from her for days or even weeks at a time.

Describe one or more examples of adapted or alternative assessments you have successfully used in the art classroom for students with disabilities. Be sure to identify the student's disability. Share your response in the threaded discussion.
I have a student that has SLD and cannot write well doe to hand eye coordination issues. On the midterm exam I told him to focus on the drawing portion of the test and asked him verbally to explain topics covered in the written portion of the exam |
