Demystifying STEM Accessibility for Students Who Are Blind or Low Vision
Description
Cary Supalo of Educational Testing Service will discuss the landscape for students who are blind or low vision (BLV).
STEM accessibility is currently in a time of dynamic transition with new innovative access technologies becoming available to the BLV community in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The days of students with BLV working with sighted lab assistance, although important at times, is gradually shifting to more inclusive hands-on learning experiences. Join in as Supalo outlines some of these technologies (talking lab tools, immersive experiences, and artificial intelligence) that can be used to create a more inclusive STEM workforce.
