A list of statistics apps for low vision access that I have used in my high school, college, and graduate statistics classes as a visually impaired student

As part of a semester-long school project for one of my graduate classes, I researched several free braille art and tactile image libraries that could be used for educational activities relating to science, agriculture, ecology, and several other topics. Even though I don’t personally use…

As a student with low vision studying Computational and Data Sciences, I was exposed to several programming languages as part of my coursework, though many of my classes revolved around the Python programming language. Since I primarily access information visually, it was important that I…

I have low vision and a degree in computational and data sciences, here are my tips for introducing R programming to a low vision student.

Programming resources and free accessible coding tutorials that support large print and browser zoom, curated by a student with low vision

When I think back to my high school biology class and using a microscope with low vision, I remember my lab partner (and best friend to this day) would provide detailed verbal descriptions of what different slides looked like and attempt to draw some of…

When I look at images of flowers, I see a swirl of colors and have to zoom in on different areas to figure out what I am looking at or what kind of flower it is. Because I have low vision and double vision, these…

Tips and strategies I use for taking math tests and statistics tests with low vision and monocular double vision that help me access information visually

When I was working on adapting a math worksheet for one of my classes, I noticed that it was challenging to keep track of scratch work and problems written in a vertical layout with double vision. I was looking for a way to draw lines…
