For this week’s class we had a guest speaker named Chantelle Morvay-Adams over zoom. Chantelle is the secretary and on the Board of Directors of BCEDACCESS Society. The BCEDACCESS Society is an organization run by volunteers that helps families of students with disabilities in British Columbia. Chantelle was very insightful on the long way to go that the educational system has in terms of technology integration. For example, many families and schools do not have money to buy technology for their children/students. Chantelle also talked about ableism which is something I had never heard of before today. Ableism is the discrimination against people with disabilities.
