Evaluation of a collaborative photography workshop using the iPad 2 as an accessible technology for participants who are blind, visually impaired and sighted working collaboratively

摘要

A workshop using iPads to train photographers who are blind, visually impaired and sighted is evaluated using grounded theory/methodology and a model of inclusive technical capital. It is hypothesized that all participants find iPad apps accessible. It is found that iPads and apps are generally good introductory tools, but experienced participants who are blind and visually impaired prefer specialized cameras.
