Lesson 5 Accommodations: Mobility Impairments

Support the student's use of a computer equipped with a special input device (e.g., voice input, Morse code, alternative keyboard) whenever appropriate. For more information, consult the video presentation and publication Working Together: Computers and People with Mobility Impairments or the AccessSTEM Knowledge Base.

Because this unit involves manipulation of small objects, make adjustments for a student with upper body mobility impairment or fine motor coordination issues; sometimes working with a partner is effective. Also, consult lab design recommendations for students with mobility impairments at AssisTech.
