On BlindDate, students with disabilities give insight into their daily student life. They offer concrete recommendations to help break down barriers in teaching.

BlindDate is a virtual meeting platform where student personas with disabilities share their everyday university life. This includes strategies, assistive technologies, and barriers students encounter. A teacher can also contribute significantly to accessibility at the university.

.BlindDate provides teachers with insights into measures for designing education materials that will benefit many learners simultaneously.

Personas are fictional people who represent a target group with specific characteristics in BlindDate, students with disabilities. Personas are based on real data. These data were collected through surveys, testimonials, and feedback from students with disabilities over the course of the SHUFFLE project.
