CD-ROMS for Math and Science‪.‬

INTRODUCTION: THE PROBLEM A rich array of software to support the teaching of math and science is now available. Unfortunately, most of this software is not usable by students who are blind or visually impaired. As students and teachers increasingly have access to multimedia computers in their classrooms, the chances that a student who is blind or visually impaired will be left out of a math or science lesson because of inaccessible software increases. Software that motivates with audio, allows interactive control of simulations, or provides a working math notebook complete with calculations, could be tools for students with impaired vision--if only the students could use it.
