Measures for inclusion: coping with the challenge of visual impairment and blindness in university undergraduate level language learning

This paper develops from previous research ( Orsini‐Jones et al., 2005 ) and reports on the experience of three students, two visually impaired and one blind, reading languages at Coventry University, on the adjustments made to meet their needs and on the challenges encountered on their learning journey both from their point of view and from the point of view of the staff involved. It focuses on three students' experience of their languages course and considers the challenges they met in each of their years of study. It concludes by evaluating these students' language learning journey at Coventry University, reporting on their feedback on their experience and on whether or not they feel that staff have successfully catered for their individual needs. It is argued here, as in the previous related work ( Orsini‐Jones, et al., 2005 ) that ‘there still exists some tension between the reasonable anticipatory adjustments that lecturers can put in place and the necessary ad hoc ones that will be needed for a disabled student with very specific needs’.     

听障大学生在线开放课程建设探索——以《信息技术基础(听障)》为例

以《信息技术基础(听障)》为例,探讨听障大学生在线开放课程建设步骤。通过分析听障大学生的认知特点,构建静态与动态课程资源,提出"教学做"一体化的教学模式;采用任务驱动、项目导向的教学方法;运用自然手语为主要教学语言,字幕为辅助教学语言,合理设计自然手语、字幕、教学课件在录制屏幕上的呈现方式。
