| Target | Children who are deaf or hard of hearing (6 - 17 years old) |
|---|---|
| Disability category | deaf and hard of hearing |
| Teaching units / Applicable scenes | physical education |
| Specific purposes | • This light-emitting starting gun will enable children to start on seeing the flash of light, without depending on sound. |
| Considerations for disability characteristics | • A white strobe light under the muzzle flashes at the same time as emitting a sound. |
| Expected effects and results | • This light-emitting starting gun will enable children to start quicker than with usual sound-only starting guns. |
| How to use | • The white flash is hard to see in outdoor daylight. Therefore, the use of a black board as a background makes it easier to see. |
