Adapting Advanced Information Technology Network Training for Adults with Visual Impairments
Armstrong, Helen L.; Murray, Iain D.
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v104 n8 p504-509 Aug 2010
This article describes an accessible e-learning environment that was designed to deliver advanced IT skills to legally blind students in preparation for employment. The aim was to convert industry-standard training materials in print into accessible formats and to deliver the learning materials in ways that are more suited to adult students with visual impairments. The components of the learning environment are discussed, together with the successes and problems that were faced, in the hope that others may learn from the authors' experiences. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.)
