Dr. Bass was informed that after winter break, a new student would be joining his class. While the students were out for winter break, he visited his classroom to try several rearrangements of the students’ desks and the learning centers. He examined
the traffic flow and spacing of each arrangement and finally decided on one that provided adequate space for movement and ensured barrier free aisles. He added a new table to the end of a row of the usual student desks and adjusted the height of it so that the space under the table was at least 73 cm high. It appears Dr. Bass’ new student is possibly someone who is: A. mobility or motor impaired. B. visually impaired. C. emotionally disturbed. D. hearing impaired. E. culturally different.
