00:00:04.990 --> 00:00:05.870 align:middle line:90%
JASON SCHNECK: Hello.

00:00:05.870 --> 00:00:09.130 align:middle line:84%
My name is Jason Schneck, and I
work in the Disability Programs

00:00:09.130 --> 00:00:09.933 align:middle line:90%
and Services.

00:00:09.933 --> 00:00:12.100 align:middle line:84%
It's really important for
students with disabilities

00:00:12.100 --> 00:00:13.960 align:middle line:84%
to contact our
department so that we'll

00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:15.940 align:middle line:84%
be able to provide the
accommodations based off

00:00:15.940 --> 00:00:17.230 align:middle line:90%
of their specific needs.

00:00:17.230 --> 00:00:19.330 align:middle line:84%
It gives them equal
access to the materials

00:00:19.330 --> 00:00:21.020 align:middle line:84%
and to the classroom
environment.

00:00:21.020 --> 00:00:23.590 align:middle line:84%
The data shows that the
students that do reach out to us

00:00:23.590 --> 00:00:26.540 align:middle line:84%
are more likely to be
successful in their courses,

00:00:26.540 --> 00:00:28.930 align:middle line:84%
and they're most likely
going to have a quicker

00:00:28.930 --> 00:00:31.540 align:middle line:84%
chance at graduating and
achieving their goals.

00:00:31.540 --> 00:00:33.290 align:middle line:84%
ANGEL HERNANDEZ: Before
attending college,

00:00:33.290 --> 00:00:35.350 align:middle line:84%
I was a bit scared,
mainly because I

00:00:35.350 --> 00:00:38.200 align:middle line:84%
was going to be the first in my
household who has ever attended

00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:39.060 align:middle line:90%
college.

00:00:39.060 --> 00:00:42.220 align:middle line:84%
They said they'll probably
have some resources for you,

00:00:42.220 --> 00:00:44.440 align:middle line:84%
knowing that you have
learning disabilities

00:00:44.440 --> 00:00:47.050 align:middle line:84%
and actual physical
disabilities,

00:00:47.050 --> 00:00:48.200 align:middle line:90%
and that's what I did.

00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:51.592 align:middle line:84%
It just gave me a peace of mind
knowing that I have the support.

00:00:51.592 --> 00:00:53.050 align:middle line:84%
JASON SCHNECK: Our
services include

00:00:53.050 --> 00:00:56.170 align:middle line:84%
disability-specific counseling
from our amazing faculty

00:00:56.170 --> 00:00:58.780 align:middle line:84%
to ensure that their
accommodations are being

00:00:58.780 --> 00:01:01.210 align:middle line:84%
put forth in a correct
manner, such as testing

00:01:01.210 --> 00:01:04.099 align:middle line:84%
accommodations, where it be a
distraction-reduced environment.

00:01:04.099 --> 00:01:07.410 align:middle line:84%
We also have alternate
media, assistive technology,

00:01:07.410 --> 00:01:09.920 align:middle line:84%
tram services if they
have mobility issues

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:11.460 align:middle line:90%
to get around the campuses.

00:01:11.460 --> 00:01:15.830 align:middle line:84%
It could also be access to
Otter.ai note-taking software.

00:01:15.830 --> 00:01:18.590 align:middle line:84%
Chaffey College is one of
the first community colleges

00:01:18.590 --> 00:01:21.200 align:middle line:84%
to offer Otter.ai
to our students

00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.810 align:middle line:84%
in the disability
programs and services.

00:01:23.810 --> 00:01:28.010 align:middle line:84%
Otter.ai note-taking software
is a recording-based software

00:01:28.010 --> 00:01:30.080 align:middle line:84%
that will transcribe
live lectures

00:01:30.080 --> 00:01:31.490 align:middle line:84%
and break it down
for the student

00:01:31.490 --> 00:01:34.560 align:middle line:84%
to have easier access to
efficiently navigate through it.

00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:36.360 align:middle line:90%
It can summarize the lecture.

00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:40.550 align:middle line:84%
They're able to get key points
and engage with the platform

00:01:40.550 --> 00:01:42.710 align:middle line:84%
where they're actually
able to ask it questions

00:01:42.710 --> 00:01:44.480 align:middle line:84%
and be able to have
it respond back

00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.370 align:middle line:84%
to them based off of
the specific lecture

00:01:46.370 --> 00:01:48.080 align:middle line:90%
that they just recorded.

00:01:48.080 --> 00:01:50.220 align:middle line:84%
ANGEL HERNANDEZ: Throughout
my years of school,

00:01:50.220 --> 00:01:52.400 align:middle line:84%
I'd always struggled
taking notes, trying

00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:54.220 align:middle line:90%
to follow with the class.

00:01:54.220 --> 00:01:56.390 align:middle line:84%
The Otter.ai really helped
me keep up with my notes

00:01:56.390 --> 00:01:58.340 align:middle line:84%
and to keep up with
the class and keep

00:01:58.340 --> 00:01:59.745 align:middle line:90%
me engaged with the class.

00:01:59.745 --> 00:02:01.370 align:middle line:84%
This whole semester
I've been using it,

00:02:01.370 --> 00:02:03.097 align:middle line:84%
and it really did
help me out a lot.

00:02:03.097 --> 00:02:05.430 align:middle line:84%
JASON SCHNECK: How did you
do in this class, by the way?

00:02:05.430 --> 00:02:06.740 align:middle line:90%
ANGEL HERNANDEZ: I paced it.

00:02:06.740 --> 00:02:07.160 align:middle line:90%
JASON SCHNECK: Excellent.

00:02:07.160 --> 00:02:08.539 align:middle line:90%
That's what I'm talking about.

00:02:08.539 --> 00:02:10.770 align:middle line:84%
ANGEL HERNANDEZ: DPS has
been a game changer for me.

00:02:10.770 --> 00:02:12.300 align:middle line:84%
You have the exact
same opportunity,

00:02:12.300 --> 00:02:16.610 align:middle line:84%
the exact same chances
of graduating and having

00:02:16.610 --> 00:02:20.150 align:middle line:84%
that same success as a regular
student or a regular person

00:02:20.150 --> 00:02:23.767 align:middle line:84%
with very little-to-no
disabilities have.

00:02:23.767 --> 00:02:25.850 align:middle line:84%
JASON SCHNECK: We're also
able to provide students

00:02:25.850 --> 00:02:28.790 align:middle line:84%
with learning disability
testing to see if they

00:02:28.790 --> 00:02:30.830 align:middle line:90%
qualify for our services.
