<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are working with a student who will be taking statistics, organic chemistry, and physiology—entirely online. She is newly blind and is currently learning JAWS for Windows. Notably, she has taken the chemistry course before as a sighted
student.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are in the process of seeking academic aid, but we are also very concerned about how to best support her with aspects of these classes that are highly visual, particularly the 3D models and computer-based work that are integral to chemistry
and physiology.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Have any of you faced a similar situation? If so, how did you approach accommodations for courses that rely heavily on visual and spatial content? Any specific recommendations for tools, strategies, or approaches that worked well for students
in these disciplines would be very helpful.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We sincerely appreciate any guidance or resources you can share.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<o:p></o:p></p>
