Accessible Textbooks in the Classroom II
This document is the third in a series related to accessible instructional materials and provides suggested guidelines for administrators, teachers, and paraprofessionals for determining which alternate formats (and which tools to access them and exploit their flexibility) are best suited to a given student's print-related challenges. (The first of the series, The Promise of Accessible Textbooks: Increased Achievement for All Students, is available via CAST's Publications web page, and the second of the series, Accessible Textbooks in the Classroom, is available via this NIMAS resource list.)  http://nimas.cast.org/about/resources/accessible_textbooks_ii.html [2]
