My Experience Teaching General Chemistry to a Student Who Is Visually Impaired
Stewart, Katherine M. E.
Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, v21 n1 p95-101 2018
This paper summarizes my experience with teaching a first-year, General Chemistry course to a visually impaired student. This includes accommodations and modifications for both the lecture material and the laboratory. Included are also examples of formats and syntax for txt-based quizzes, tests, and laboratory reports, as well as other general accommodations for both the student and the service dog.
