This is a brief report on the need to develop an Internet-based course, to be teach by a person who is blind, and through the use of assistive technologies and the presence of content in alternative format (i.e. audio recording) made a course accessible to this blind instructor.
Impact / Outcome
Teachers successfully created and delivered this course. This case demonstrates that a distance learning course can be created in such a way that development and implementation can be accessible to instructors who have disabilities themselves. Accommodations for an instructor with a disability can benefit students with disabilities as well.
