Rachel RNIB Education Officers would be happy to get involved in this. Some have more experience than others but, if the student is looking at access to learning, support whilst at College, tactile media etc. If you let me know where the student is I can give you the relevant RNIB contact. My email, phone details etc are below John Milligan RNIB Bristol Education and Employment Network: SW 10 Still House Lane Bristol BS3 4EB Tel: 0117 953 7750 (switchboard) Tel: 0117 934 1714 (direct) Fax:0117 953 7751 EMail:[log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Rachel Lake [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 05 December 2000 20:30 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Deafblind students Does anyone have experience of supporting deafblind students on computer science courses or any course for that matter? Have had an enquiry from a deafblind year twelve student and I feel more than a little out of my depth. How would she get reading? What about problems with computer access? Would DSA be sufficient? Would she cope with lectures (she uses tactile communication which I have no experience of)? What about group work? What about accommodation? Any comments, observations, suggestions etc very welcome.
