Is it invisible to accessibility options as well? Like if I need a computer to tell me what the assignment is, will it tell me to do the thing that will make you think I cheated?

Disability accomodation requests are sent to the professor at the beginning of each semester so he would know which students use accessibility tools

Ok but will those students also be deceived?

[–] underwire212@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago

I mean it’s possible yeah. But the point is that the professor should know this and, hopefully, modify the instructions for those with this specific accommodation.

You're giving kids these days far too much credit. They don't even understand what folders are.

[–] Sas 4 points 2 weeks ago

What a load of condescending shit. You're giving kids not enough credit. Just because folders haven't been relevant to them some kids don't know about them, big deal. If they became in some way relevant they could learn about them. If you asked a millennial that never really used a computer they'd probably also not know. I'm fairly sure that people with disabilities know how to use accessibility tools like screen readers.

what if someone develops a disability during the semester?

Probably postpone? Or start late paperwork to get acreditated?, talk with the teacher and explain what happened?
