    Hi @LoFiGummy I had heard of accessibility awareness day, but didn't realize it was a global event. I work with children, and many of them have special issues. I use games on tablets and phones for educational purposes and have seen first hand how sights and sounds can affect the children. To be able to control their environment to help them achieve their best is a godsend.

    Hey there, @LoFiGummy!
    What I had learned about "Accessibility", is because of my disability which is "Autism Spectrum Disorder" Level 1, I had gone through several difficulties that I had faced every day of the year, my main difficulty in my life was communicating with the public in schools and with other classmates.
    With this great opportunity to celebrate this "Accessibility" it would help a lot if these people with disabilities to have many better experiences every moment in their career for the better future and (perhaps) make these everyday things even easier and get used to the ways we are keeping us!
    Happy Global Awareness Day (belated)! 🤗💙♿️🚹️

    Hi @JONH10 I found that students with ASD thrived or excelled in cyber school. They were able to configure their education methods in ways that they learned best. Many of the students were able to graduate early, many times with college credits

    This would also be great for those students who are experiencing their disabilities, although educational methods are better suited for high school or higher education!

    So that it is a successful experience to contribute to a university!

    Anyway, thanks for mentioning me for my point about my argument, @rebelchild!

    Some of my children attended cyber school for high school. It was an incredible experience.

    During the pandemic the children I watched in my daycare who were in elementary school were doing the virtual school. The one girl who was 8 yrs old and ASD did extremely well

    I learned that the 13th anniversary of GAAD matches my birthday May 16.

    Hi @LoFiGummy I think all off these additions are wonderful for a number of accessibility problems, and offer inclusion for so many to be able to play where otherwise they may struggle. I personally like the clear and uncomplicated instructions and find these very useful.

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
