Description
Summary:Copyright © 2015 SEFI. This paper describes the application of recent developments in laboratory and simulation tools used in the Cisco" Academy for the Vision Impaired (CAVI) program to equivalent studies by sighted students. Having applied these tools to the global distribution of vision impaired students through CAVI it was considered reasonable to offer the normally "hands on" aspects of the Cisco Academy Program in a remote, virtual or simulated manner to a wider audience. Two major issues addressed in delivering this program are the accessibility of Packet Tracer and scheduling equipment access to the Remote Bundles [1].
