Abstract

A tool that could improve the quality of the assistance perceived by the visually impaired students, during a PC laboratory teaching session, is presented in this paper. The work of qualified supporting teachers could be highly improved by the use of suitable software and hardware facilities allowing for remote monitoring of students' physical and working condition. This could highly reduce the need for a continuous presence of a tutor, that might downgrade students' self estimate.
