As a digital art teacher, I have had several students who are visually impaired. I have had larger dual monitors installed at their computer stations. I taught them how to use the built in magnifier. They can use one monitor to navigate and the other monitor to see everything magnified. I had to fight with our ET department to get the monitors (who is going to pay for it? Why is it needed? etc.) I also showed them how to use high contrast mode. This really helped them be successful in my class. I also had to modify assignments to give extra time or truncate the assignmnets. |

I have had several students with visual impairments. Beyond getting larger monitors and showing the students how to use the monitors and accessibility features in windows. I have had to give extra time on assignments, modify the assignment or truncate the assignmnet based on the student's abilities. For instance, if a student is color blind, I would need to modify the assignment to take color out of it. |
