|
A student from the school is using a pointer to interact with the screen.
|
|
Mike Marusic: So what it allows them to do is learn at their own pace, and they can adjust the classroom environment depending on a student, but allows a student a wheelchair to access technology that they normally wouldn't be able to do. So it's really a great fit for this school.
