[blindkid] Economics Test

[Treva Olivero]

Hi Barbara, 

I haven't really had this type of experience because I didn't use Braille in
high school, but if she can verbally describe the diagram in detail with all
of the parts and if she knows the subject matter, I would think that would
be sufficient. Her teacher should have said something sooner so a tactile
diagram could have been made, and she could have labeled the parts. I'm
guessing the diagram's not in the book. 

 

I hope the test goes well!

        Hi all -- Does anyone have a child who has taken high school
Economics?  My daughter's AP Economics teacher told her she'll need to draw
a diagram on a test tomorrow.  She's a braille user, so this doesn't make
sense to me.  I'm sure there other ways to demonstrate that she understands
the subject matter.  Any suggestions?
