 I
provide a variety of media choices to meet different learning styles
in my classroom. Accommodations include audio tape recordings of books
(English & Spanish), audio quizzes, abd assistive technologies
using screen reader and voice recognition.
- Several
of my students required accommodations for their particular learning
situations. Books were recorded on audio tape in both English and
Spanish for students to take home and use. Alternatives to regular
paper quizzes were also provided to students who needed additional
time or personal assistance. Volunteer parents acted as readers to
a number of students. Anecdotal notes recorded by the volunteers kept
me informed of new words learned by students.
At various times during the unit, I used assistive technologies including:
-
- scanned
written materials with book reader and saved to cassette;
- incorporated
voice recognition system for computer assignments;
- substituted
trackball for mouse;
- downloaded
and implemented screen talker;
- printed
handouts in Braille;
- designed
handouts and tests in large font size;
- incorporated
large text displays.
