Shopping, the movies, sports, talking on the phone or by email... so many things to do... so little time! How does adaptive technology make these everyday activities easier for people with special abilities? Students discover different technology that is available.

Louis Braille Culture
Louis Braille was a very important French figure that brought forward his reading/writing system for the blind that is still used today! In class we will watch a movie about him, his life, and how he brought his Braille system to be used today. Below is a link to the movie, and also an extra file of the questions, in case you lose/forget your hard copy from class.
Enjoy the film!
