Proposal Funding versus Average

Questionnaire

Narrative
This proposal requests funding for 6 Dell Latitude 3600 laptops and 6 iPads to provide accommodations for students registered with Student Accessibility Services (SAS) who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. These laptops and tablets will be used to provide C-Print transcription services to SAS students in classroom lectures. This provides Deaf and Hard of Hearing students with an equal level of accessibility and substantially saves FAU funds. C-Print transcriptionists are trained at SAS and are a more cost-effective accommodations solution when compared to American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters. This proposal will address increased demand due to a current increase in Deaf and Hard of Hearing students registering for services at FAU.
