A classmate of mine, Chloe Welsh, posted the talk by Dallin H. Oaks entitled "Good, Better, Best" and said this about it, "This is the....talk that
differentiates between good, better, and best decisions that we will have to
make in our lives. I really enjoyed this talk because we can relate it to every
single decision we make in our lives, recreational or not." Through last weeks lesson and this weeks I have found that this talk, and her words, could not be any more true. There will be many decisions in my future that will have to be made and I will have to decide which option will be "best." This talk is one to keep.
To help make things accessible at a facility, I liked the simplicity of it all found in the readings.
Can't be much more simple than that.
From my practicum and from my past experiences with those who have disabilities I have found that honesty is the best way to do things. Honesty with yourself and with those you interact with. Trying to dance around a topic doesn't accomplish much.
Also, another thing I want to have access to and be able to quickly refer to is the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. It was when things started to change for the better for those with disabilities and has changed the way just about everything is built.
