Services for disabled students at FMNS include courses, programs, services, jobs, activities, or facilities that allow qualified lecturers, students, and employees with disabilities to participate on a par with normal conditions. Services for disabled students, for example, the course location can be changed if the designated space is not accessible to students with mobility challenges.

FMNS provides additional time to complete assignments for disabled students. Students who qualify for additional time to complete assignments are expected to meet with their instructor prior to their assignment to determine appropriate guidelines for late acceptance of work. Each student must receive guidance on a case-by-case basis. Students and faculty/instructors can contact.

A variety of amenities are provided including large print, audio recordings, electronic computer captions and Braille. Careful consideration is given to the needs of each student and the quality and quantity of each printed document to determine the most effective modality. Students requiring alternative formats must document their reading disability, review their request with contact information, disability services, and meet with the document conversion coordinator. Obtaining alternative formats takes a lot of time. To receive an alternative format as early as possible, students are encouraged to submit a request immediately after registering for the upcoming semester. Document conversion can take 4-6 weeks, so it’s important to let us know as soon as possible about this need, including the name of the text you need to access, the ISBN number, the medium you need to access it and the instructor’s instructions for the course name and number

FMNS offers technology services to every member of the community with disabilities as determined by contact information, disability services. To use technology assistance services, you must register with contact information, disability services and have an active single sign-on (SSO) account.

A student with accommodation for audio descriptions will need audio descriptions added for all visual media in the course.

Therefore, audio descriptions should be prepared in advance of the required subject matter.

FMNS provides captioning, namely accommodation for the deaf. It is mandatory for all media that is presented publicly, such as the website science.uii.ac.id. Public media consists of any access that does not require login and ID. It is wise to annotate all media as a universal design method. Many people benefit from texts outside the Deaf community. When a student needs text as accommodation, all media should be closed captioned for classwork, homework, etc. Libraries are a great resource for pre-text media. Media can also be sent for text from vendors, such as 3 Play Media.

Captioning is a form of receptive communication access where Deaf or Deaf consumers read realtime transcriptions of all verbal information presented. Examples include voice captioning, captioning, c-print. Access can be obtained via individual laptops or small screens if there are two or more consumers at an event.

Captioning is word for phrase, just like what you see in television captions.

The note-taking service is available to eligible students. After students meet with contact information, disability services to determine which classes may require additional notes, disability services make a note of the student’s need for note-taking services. Instructors are notified of their students’ accommodation needs electronically. Many notes are provided directly by the instructor and can be accessed on the course website or Moodle. If notes are not provided by the instructor, the disability service works with the faculty to obtain a voluntary student registrar from the class. Student registrars are contracted to upload their notes. For his efforts, note takers can get 45 hours of community service per class each semester. Students who need notes will be notified once a note taker has been selected and the notes are available for download.

Some students require accommodation materials to be prepared before class begins. In this case, the prepared power point slides or their equivalent provided earlier will help students follow along and identify the main themes and concepts. It is helpful to provide written instructions or assignment expectations with the material.

When in-class notes or notes prepared are unsatisfactory or impossible/timely, a student may be eligible to record lectures for personal use. Usually, the recording is done electronically either with a digital recorder, smart phone, or smart pen. At your request, the disability service may ask students to sign a contract acknowledging that you hold the intellectual property rights to any content, and that they will not distribute, post, or reproduce the recordings without your permission. Contracts usually require students to delete or destroy records at the end of the semester. Questions or concerns should be raised to disability services as soon as possible.

This communication access service is only effective if the consumer is experienced in the methodology provided. A sign interpreter listens to spoken language and interprets messages into visual language. Sign language translators are certified by a national organization that tests practitioners’ qualifications, maintains records of professional development and continuing education and monitors practice in the profession. Deaf consumers must be fluent in receiving and understanding sign language to receive spoken messages as interpreted. The oral transliterator takes the message and makes it visible on the lips and by supporting gestures or gestures, conveys the speaker’s message. It is very important that deaf consumers can read speech, understand the subtle nuances of facial expressions and body movements/positions to fully understand the spoken message. Deaf consumers who late tend to be unskilled prefer to use text services. However, this is not to say that deaf individuals who are late deaf cannot learn to read speech.
