[nabs-l] Question.

It seems to me that the best course would be to contact your 
professor and ask them about what will be happening in class and 
whether it would be a good idea for you to have an assistant.  
Explain to your professor how you learn and your experiences in 
other classes and point out all the ways of making things 
accessible you have access to.  If you and your professor come to 
the conclusion that you don't need an assistant, then don't get 
one.  But don't just make an assumption one way or the other 
without information.

Afternoon, Mariya,

         Frankly, I'm surprised this is even a question
! First of all, without any experience in the class, you can't 
know
the color of teach's style or other minutia about the 
configuration
of the class. So yes, take all the help you can get. Imagine 
trying
to, after the class is already well underway, securing an
assistant?  At 11:25 AM 1/7/2016, Mariya Vasileva via nabs-l

Hi guys, I have a question. I'm going to be taking a descriptive
astronomy course this semester. One of the OSD staff thought that 
I
might need a person in the class with me to describe a lot of the
visual things that will be shown throughout the course. Is this a
good idea or is it not. I personally, don't think that I really 
need
it. Because I'm good at visualization and I just don't think it's
really all that necessary.
