TEACHER: My students are going to be participating in a living museum activity, where they research a person from history and present to others who come to the museum to learn about each historical figure. We've been discussing bias points of view from past historical events, so we have characters placed next to each other that might have different viewpoints about the same event in history. One of my students is nonverbal, so we're using this sequence message device so that when people come to him during the activity he can activate the switch and tell a little about himself to the people in the audience.
Now, the student isn't able to direct select, press this independently. He uses a proximity switch that is mounted on his wheelchair next to his head. So if he just moves his head a little bit by connecting his switch on his wheelchair to this device, he's able to move through the messages and activate them one at a time in a sequence.
In this video, the teacher explains how her student will be participating in a living museum activity demonstrating bias viewpoints of historical events by historical figures.
