Mary Ann Siller Hi, You will want to know of these important new resources from DCMP about media description for children and the impact to equal access in the classroom. Get their newsletter, tip sheet, poster, and brochures. I had the opportunity to work with DCMP and Dr. Kay Ferrell to develop the first-ever guidlines to media description. Great fun.
