Figure 1: Special Needs
When there are visually impaired students in a classroom, here are some general
considerations to keep in mind:
•
Ask visually impaired students if they need help on specific tasks, but do not
assume that they do. The students will ask for help if they need it.
•
Use contrasting light and dark colors to help students differentiate between cables
and routers.
•
Use proper lighting in all areas of the lab to help students see more effectively.
•
Provide pocket or lighted magnifiers for reading to assist students with low vision.
•
Provide hats or visors to reduce the glare that is associated with many vision
disorders.
•
Use bold lines and write in large print when information is taught or presented.
•
Encourage all students, especially those that are visually impaired, in the
classroom. If feelings of hopelessness or fear occur, a social worker or special
teacher of the visually impaired may be called in to help these students cope with
their learning environment.
