Abstract:
This paper describes further developments in laboratory and simulation tools for use in the Cisco Academy for the Vision Impaired (CAVI) program. Due to the geographic distribution of vision impaired students it is necessary to offer the normally “hands on” aspects of the Cisco Academy Program in a remote, virtual or simulated manner. Two major issues currently faced in delivering this program is that of the inaccessibility of Packet Tracer and scheduling equipment access to the Remote Bundles [1].
