dc.description.abstractIn this video, Brian Watermeyer discusses assistive technology (particularly high-tech digital equipment) and its use in the modern classroom. He discusses the different kinds of technology available, including free add-ons to existing ubiquitous technology (such as smartphones), and how a teacher can assess a visually-impaired learner and determine with them what kind of assistive technology might help them in their studies. He stresses that assistive technology can allow visually-impaired people to access cultural artefacts (such as books) in order to participate more fully in society. Lastly, he stresses the importance of teaching appropriate digital literacy skills for visually-impaired learners to allow them to make use of the appropriate assistive technology.en_US
