What kind of accommodations can I consider for classes held in-person when face masks are required?
Talk with the deaf student to find out what works best for them; this may take some trial and error. Options include in-person or remote speech-to-text services, interpreters using clear face masks or remote video, and assistive listening systems to improve sound clarity. The goal is to make sure the student can access everything being said in class, even when face masks are worn.
