Impact of Physical Disabilities:
When it comes to education and learning the impact of a physical disability will vary. Most students will have issues with moving around campus, using equipment, and participating in field trip. Students can also be affected in the following ways:
1. Some Students may experience functional difficulties: an inability to write using a pen, reduced writing speed, involuntary head movements which affect the ability to read standard-sized print, and reduced ability to manipulate resources in the learning environment.
2. Students may have frequent or unexpected absences from class due to hospitalization or changes in their rehabilitation or treatment procedure.
3. Students with a long- standing mobility disability may have experienced gaps in their schooling due to periods of hospitalizations. This can affect their confidence in learning.

Teaching Strategies:
1. Recap information given at the beginning of the lesson for those students who may have been late.
2. Consider supplementary laboratory practicals, films or videos, as alternative options to field trips.
3. Allow students with back problems to stand in class rather then sit, if that is what they prefer.
4. Allow students who need it to tape lectures and use a note taker.
5. Allow deadlines to those student with a disability that may require extra time for completing work

Assessment Strategies:
1. Provide the option for an oral exam as an alternative for the written exam for those with disability.
2. Use a combination of both written and oral exams, let students make notes and outline answers but then answer the question completely orally.
3. Allow extra time on examinations for those students who might need it.
