Abstract
This paper is based on the film Tell Me What I See, a documentary about Simen, a student at NTNU with hearing and visual impairment. We present process elements from the idea to the finished product and elaborate on various interacting themes ranging from accessibility and constraints (defined by standards) to artistic expression in telling a good story. By presenting the film in various contexts across campus and beyond, different aspects and functions evolve and show the film’s many facets. First, it can act as a digital learning resource accessible in all learning spaces supporting various pedagogies like student-active learning with, for instance, group discussions and flipped classrooms. Secondly, it can act as a medium for raising awareness about the situation of students with disabilities (SWD) and be a starting point for discussion and reflection amongst all stakeholders within Higher Education (HE).
