LMS Access

LMS Access

The idea behind the development of the learning management system (LMS) is to provide remote access to the material that is required for learning. Th system that I have been teaching for the last 5 years do prefer the LMS over handout or PDF files. For example, my former student that is visually imparied used the LMS much easier than the book. She toldme that it was easier for her to use the screen reader when she did not have to try look all over the place for the information. Another example, my physically impaired student from an auto accident could not  participate the same lab activities because of thelong standing, so she acted as the recorder for the lab. To get the help your student's need to successed is always a balance between money, expert help, and time of the instructor. A good hint for a teacher working on access issues is to ask outside your working area.
