Barrier Awareness Week 5
Barrier Awareness Activity This is a three-part task that goes along with our discussion about accessibility for people with physical disabilities. You will be looking at three areas: 1) a local business (not WalMart, HyVee, or Lewis Drug), 2) a school (Hillcrest, MMS, etc.) OR a building on campus, and 3) a house or apartment
Evaluate each of these places to see how they would meet the needs of a person with a physical disability, looking both outside and inside each place. • Is there easy mobility? • Are there obstacles or barriers that would need to be removed in order to make it more accessible? • What changes could be made that would improve the accessibility? Record your findings (to be handed in) and be prepared to share your results at class next Tuesday.
