[NFB-Science] Advice for an Aspiring Science Teacher

[rjaquiss]

Hello Lauren:
     

     Getting involved with science is certainly easier now than it was just
a few years ago. 
New technology makes it possible for blind students to do their own lab work
independently. The major piece of technology is the Talking LabQuest2 (TLQ2)
and Logger Pro software. Both of these products are available from
Independence Science. Please see the following two links for more
information:

I suggest you look at our recent newsletters and archive of the ISLAND
conferences.

The National Federation of the Blind does have a scholarship program which I
suggest you apply for. Hope this helps.
Be safe and have a great day.

Regards,

Robert

Subject: [NFB-Science] Advice for an Aspiring Science Teacher

Hi,

I am currently a senior in high school with the hopes of becoming an
Environmental Science teacher. After going blind last year I wasn't really
sure what my opportunities in the field of science would be. I would
appreciate any insights/advice on taking science classes at the collegiate
level and completing the lab portions successfully. 
Thank you!

Lauren
