[Athen] Student with Usher's Syndrome

[Dawn Hunziker]

Hi all,

I have a student with Usher's Syndrome here at the University of 
Arizona.... She is deaf and is losing her vision.  Right now she is 
depending on a CCTV to read her course materials but is finding that 
to be very exhausting / strenuous.  She is blind in one eye and has 
20/70 vision in the other....

I suggested that she learn braille and learn how to use a computer 
with a screen reader / refreshable Braille display..... Any other 
suggestions for this student?

Thanks much!

Dawn
