«Otras visiones de la UNED», el alumno con discapacidades visuales

Within the last years, the UNED has experienced a great rise in the profiles of its students, which implies an adaptation to the new demands inherent to the different groups of students that are enrolled in this university. According to these facts and taking into consideration the hypothesis that the handicapped students’ motivations, together with their study demands and needs, may differ from the ones other student groups have, handicapped students should be considered a main concern by the institution. So, paying attention to the handicapped students’ demands entails the implementation of general mechanisms of adaptation to the students, that at the same time could give an answer to the common needs that people who choose theDistance University show.
