Some systems make it very easy to move the camera between the two positions. If you have something like the Transformer, maybe connecting a web cam to magnify the board and use the Transformer to magnify the handwriting. Then he would only have to switch between
screens on the laptop, if you’re using a laptop.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">We are a community college. I have one low-vision student who can barely see the board in the first row, so we want to supply him with a video magnifier for the classroom.<o:p></o:p></p>

if this kid is making excuses or it’s a real problem. My other students tend to just snap pictures of the board and deal with those photos later, but this student says what’s on the board is interactive and he needs to switch between writing, reading the board
and reading the textbook in remedial math.<o:p></o:p></p>
