Course Design And Evaluation

Scientific paper

A general education course in astronomy was successfully adapted to provide a meaningful laboratory science experience for a visually-impaired student. Minor alterations to the style of lecture, coupled with an edition of the text on audio cassette tapes, allowed the student to keep pace with the theory component of the course. Laboratory equipment was modified to provide tactile measuring apparatus, which allowed the student to perform all the same processes of data acquisition and analysis required of sighted students.
