Hey everyone! So for my ILP I'm going to talk about when we toured the lab in SSB. This lab is really neat because it provides a lot of accommodations for students with learning disabilities or for anyone who prefers to have learning aids. The keyboard here is really neat because it's easier for people with colorblindness to use. The lab has a lot of cool stuff, really, and a lot of it is really accessible. There are numerous accommodations for blind students, such as handheld audio devices and more. The computers in the lab also have a program that can highlight a word on the screen and pronounce it while it's read, making reading retention a lot easier for the user. You can also change the colors used on the screen. Even though it was painful for some of us, our guide told us that most students prefer those certain settings. Overall, it was a really useful trip. Some of the applications looked like they would be helpful for learning for myself, too. And I plan to let my friends know about it too if they ever feel like an extra aid would help them study better.
