Technology

While technology has offered individuals with disabilities access to many new opportunities, not all new technology has been created with access in mind.  If you are creating or using technology in your classes, please consider how a student with a disability would access that program; how would a student who is blind or deaf use the technology?  If you are creating a website for use in any of your classes, it is necessary that the site be accessible to students with disabilities.

Ball State has terrific resources to ensure computer access.  Contact Carlos Taylor, Adaptive Technology Specialist, (RB 134G, 765-285-2000) to learn about Braille, enlarged script options, voice-activated computing, specialized keyboards, and much more.
