Activity 1
A. Learners who are visually impaired.
Students with any type of vision impairment will have a method of accessing the learning
material. It may be a laptop with zoom text, an enlarger that sits on the desk, a program
such as join.me which allows them to see what is on the teacher's laptop on their laptop,
enlarged text, or something else that makes the material accessible to them. If you have a
student with an impairment severe enough to need this type of assistance, the case
manager should be in touch with you before school starts to let you know what will be
needed in the classroom. Tactile models are often very useful. You can run a thin bead of
glue over all drawings so the student can also feel what they are seeing. If there is a
narrow field of vision this allows the student to know that the diagram continues outside of
their field of vision. You should be aware that many students with visual impairment get
eye fatigue and find it much harder to read material by the end of the day. This may
influence the order of the classes if that is a change that can be made. Also remember that
this student will very often be unaware of visual cues that you are using and probably use
routinely without being aware of it.

B. Learners who are hearing impaired.


Students with a hearing loss may require accommodations and assistive devices to have the
best access to education. Accommodations may be as simple as preferential seating or as
complex as wireless assistive listening devices in the classroom. Some will require sign
language. Each learner with a hearing loss should be assessed individually and
accommodations should be implemented based on the unique needs of each student.
C. Learners who have difficulty communicating

Although some students might hear and understand everything that is happening in your
classroom, their contribution may be limited because they cannot participate through speech.
For example, students who have cerebral palsy or certain types of brain injuries may
experience difficulties making their ideas clear through speech. Sometimes only close friends
and family members can understand their speech. There is a great deal of stigma associated
with speech impairments, perhaps in part because of a misconception that intelligence is
somehow correlated with clarity of speech.

People who have speech impairments may choose not to use their own voices if they expect
they will not be understood. Some use computer-based communication systems that allow
them to communicate with a synthesized voice. With these devices, students can complete
oral exams, deliver presentations, and participate in group discussions.

D. Learners with difficulty walking and moving


Inclusive classroom design shows our students with disabilities that they are valued and
normalizes inclusive attitudes for all our students to emulate. Small acts by the
classroom teacher to make the classroom a more inclusive space such as rearranging
desks, being sensitive to transition requirements and removing clutter can go a long
way toward creating a sense of belonging and inclusion in every classroom.
