This study explores the experiences of blind and low vision students at K-12 institutions. The students interviewed expressed choosing classes based on the accessibility of the materials. Teachers were frequently insensitive to them. They needed to navigate accessibility barriers in and out of the classroom constantly. Institutions should be more proactive about digital accessibility and offer more teacher training. Check out the full article for more info. #accessibility
