Question

Think about the ways new communication technologies can make certain tasks easier for

users with disabilities. For two categories of individuals with disabilities (e.g., the blind,
deaf, restricted mobility, etc.), explain one way that everyday technology helps them.
Describe the specific way the technology improves their lives.

Answer 1

Technology gives them the ability to do things that they normally couldn’t do. Like deaf people could get a cochlear implant to make them hear, people without a leg can get a prothetic leg to help them walk. Even something as simple of being colorblind, there are glasses to help them see color. It’s amazing.
