The Americans with Disabilities Act is a law that
makes it illegal to discriminate against anyone on basis of disability. Adaptive
technologies are technologies that help people with disabilities more
effectively use computing equipment. People with disabilities require different
input and output devices in order to use a computer. For example, one can use
voice recognition software to replace typing input into the keyboard.
Text-to-speech software will read text aloud for users that are vision
impaired. The biggest challenge in implementing these adaptive technologies is
the number of students each with individual disabilities. As a teacher I will
have to cater to the needs of each student individually, and make sure they
have access to the same materials as every other student in the classroom.
This site made me realize how easy building a website
can be. Weebly made it really simple to add and edit the websites content. It
was easy to choose a layout and organize all of my pages. I think I would
definitely use Weebly as a teacher. This website is a great platform for a
class website, it allows me to publish all necessary information for a class.
It allows me to insert links, embed calendars, and edit content with ease. I
could improve my website in a real classroom situation because I would have
real content.
