Показать описание
Educator Luis Perez gives a powerful talk about his experience with visual impairment, his journey with disability and the importance of access to technology for all learners.
--
After a series of car accidents, Luis Perez was left with visual impairment caused by retinitis pigmentosa. In his journey to adjust to his new circumstances, Luis discovered valuable tools that he incorporated into his work as an educator. From discovering assistive technology to taking up photography, Luis sought out means to both see without relying on his vision, and be more seen. Today, his hope is that students who may not fit into traditional categories are given the opportunity to realize their potential through access and visibility.
