In order to adapt the curriculum, weused a high-resolution tactile display capable of mirroring imagery from a video display into adepth map that could be felt. This enabled the dual presentation of visual content as tactilesurface maps. Through this process, we learned several best practices in terms of how to createcontent that transfers well from one modality to another, and we also developed a number ofguidelines for creation of teaching materials like notes and assignments in a way that is morescreen-reader friendly.This paper shares key takeaways while also communicating student and teacher perspectives ondeveloping, teaching, and using more accessible materials.

First, thegeneral belief that well-seasoned and experienced practitioners can be a tremendous resource totap; in combination with regular “full-time” faculty- who are, in most instances, the “research-type,” and who have not had the opportunity to practice engineering. Second, industry’sprevailing perception that engineering education does not prepare graduates adequately for thepractice. Therefore, from industry’s perspective, the quality of education for engineering practiceis seen as deficient. Third, blending practical experience in teaching design and design-relatedcourses is repeatedly emphasized by ABET, and by other engineering

However, in our practice, most texts and papers lack a strongarticulation and demonstration of various ways to smooth narratives, and do not offerdescriptions of the exact procedure through which narrative smoothing occurs. We thereforehave designed this paper with two ends in mind: First, to promote the credibility and viability ofnarrative analysis for engineering education researchers, there must be greater transparencyregarding how researchers go from a raw interview transcript to a publishable narrative.
