cation technology gain precedence, " he
notes. " In many cases, instructors can
wear a device to block disruptive sounds
and provide clear audio simultaneously to
listeners wearing a similar device. "
Maher-Moran is equally excited about
ceiling microphones that pick up room
audio with great clarity and stream it on the
network directly. " It would be really useful
to install these in an educational space, "
she says, " And users can stream it directly
to their listening devices or phone. "
From a technology perspective, machine
learning has the potential to dramatically
improve accessibility, Pedersen claims.
Although machine captioning is still not
accurate enough, it continues to improve.
" Eventually, you will even see technology
where a machine learning system will be
able to aurally describe an image, " he
promises, " or even a running play by play
of what is being shown on a video. "
Kaufman, on the other hand, underscores
another aspect that is essential in
'Accessibility should
be a consideration
for every project an
integrator does, not
just within higher ed.'
- Mike Pedersen,
Iowa State University
higher education: pedagogy itself. He comments,
" I've been saying this for a long time
- that people in this field should be trained
in pedagogy, as well as [in] technology.
When you have comprehensive knowledge
of the teaching and learning process, it essentially
allows you to adapt the technology
accordingly. "
Pedersen asserts, " Ultimately, accessibility
should be a consideration for every
project an integrator does, not just within
higher ed. "
Indeed, accessibility does more than
just provide opportunities for people who
have disabilities. Accessibility is usability.
It means bringing everyone together, and
that is the beauty of technology. And there
will always be new developments in technology
that will continue to improve the
experience down the line.
We should not regard accessibility as a
box to check after the project is complete;
instead, we should strive to incorporate
it at every stage. In so doing, we
will enrich our lives and those of others.
Only then can we achieve true equity and
inclusion. CI
