Re: [AI] Background music while studying and visual impairment: a student's question

[Adhimoolam Vetrivel Murugan]

I do study our work with background music, so there are two options that we can use one. Let’s say if you are using or if you’re working with computer, then there are programmes like VLC media player and all in which you can lower the volume so that the background music is audible, but it does not interrupt Screen reader. That’s one option. Second option would be you can have another separate device in which music being played in low volume so that it doesn’t interrupt your screen so either way I don’t think it affects concentration as much. It is definitely possible to work or study with background music. Sent from my iPhone On 22 Aug 2024, at 9:15 AM, Sandeep Singh <sandeepsingh...@gmail.com> wrote:  Hi, depends on an individual. Ask the student to begin with low volume background music. If it feels comfortable, all right, otherwise will have to do without it. Background music does help in drowning out the outside noise sometimes.

Many sighted students find that background music can help them focus, especially when solving math problems. However, for visually impaired students, the challenge is balancing their attention between the screen reader and the music. , I’m curious to hear your thoughts on this topic. Are there any strategies or accommodations you’ve found helpful for visually impaired students who prefer to study with background music? Regards. Cauvery, She/her -- Disclaimer: 1.
