Adapted
Equipment for Vision
There are three primary ways to utilize
assistive technology to make print materials more accessible to
students with vision impairments: magnification, speech output and
Braille.
Magnification
Magnification is used to enlarge an object
to a sufficient size to allow the student to receive and process
the information.
