Peet on his journey to upskill his technology. It's amazing to see the progress that happens when patience meets persistence, and a little technical elbow grease is thrown in.
Inclusion Works Africa’s (IWA) focus was on making Peet's computer experience smooth, safe, and truly his own.
They started with a full "spring cleaning" of the digital and physical workspace. The computer, scanner, and external keyboard all got a thorough cleaning, complete with lessons on PC hygiene. Peet was shown and support how to secure all his wires and plugs, creating a workspace that is optimal for safety and easy reach.
Under the hood, the PC had a serious tune-up: anti-virus scans, disk cleanups, and updates to make sure everything is running as fast as possible. Most importantly, IWA fine-tuned the settings for his essential screen readers, NVDA and Dolphin.
Peet is enjoying learning to use both! He even learned how to switch between NVDA and Dolphin depending on the task. He’s keyboard was cleaned and newly marked with tactile markings based on his input.
Every adjustment, every lesson, and every clean surface is making a difference; Peet’s training on dolphin and NVDA is about unlocking independence and connecting him to the world in a way that feels empowering.
