RE: Blind and Low Vision Knowledge & Practice Community : Chemistry Materials for Blind and Low Vision

Hello,

 

First, I would point to ImageShare, a Benetech initiative where images of all kinds of STEM are being collected. They are described, have a 2d tactile, or a 3D tactile and more. More materials are being gathered as the project progresses.

https://imageshare.benetech.org/

 

I have also copied the Chemistry on the Web and in Publishing Community Group, which is working on accessibility issues related to Chemistry. Some of the best people in the world who have disabilities are in this CG.

 

You can email me, kerscher@montana.com <mailto:kerscher@montana.com>  if you need contact information to ImageShare. The Chemistry CG is free to join.

 

Best

George

I'm looking for recommendations on where to find accessible materials for a general chemistry class for a student who is blind.  The student has the textbook available in a digital format, so we are looking for supplemental materials already created that are in an accessible format, especially chemical structure diagrams combined with Braille.

Thank you for any suggestions,
Jenny Paxton​
