Scenario_5

=Scenario 5=

A teacher wants to utilize her knowledge of making podcasts, and records a podcast lecture for the class, and also makes it a mandatory assignment. She says it will be the subject of a class discussion two days later. She does not provide captions or make a transcript available and completely forgets about the deaf student. The lack of accessibility information, along with the quick turnaround time, puts the deaf student at a disadvantage and he/she is unable to prepare subtitles for the class. She also says if it is successful, she will continue to make podcasts for the class. This is issued with no regard or thought to the deaf or hard of hearing student.

Note: this scenario has the added pressure of making the deaf/ hard of hearing student feel that if they complain or ask for subtitles, it will ruin it for the rest of the class.
