What challenges have you encountered?
We found it challenging to find meaningful and effective applications that were free or affordable. We also found it difficult to complete all of the tasks in our class time. Finding connections to speakers who could share about various disabilities was an additional challenge for us.
What celebrations?
The students certainly have a heightened awareness and appreciation for people who live with disabilities. Another highlight was when Mr. Perry came in and shared about how he helped design the Mary Free Bed YMCA to be inclusive in all areas and to all people.
How has thinking changed on the original goals?
Originally, we thought that the students would formulate responses and videotape in some capacity; however, time did not along for that. Our goal was to publish responses using some form of technology.
What support do you need?
We could use support in finding connections to speakers, additional programs or tools that would be helpful for students with disabilities, and ways we could integrate this into other classes to allow for more time.
