Stangl, A., Verma, N., Fleischmann, K.R., Morris, M.R. and Gurari, D., 2021, October Going beyond
one-size-fits-all image descriptions to satisfy the information wants of people who are blind or have
low vision. In Proceedings of the 23rd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers
and Accessibility (pp. 1-15).
Read the above article and respond to the following questions. Question 1
1.1 Explain to a novice educator on, what does a one size fits all approach mean in
teaching.
According to “Asset ’21, October 18–22, 2021, Virtual Event, USAAbigale Stangl, Nitin Verma,
Kenneth R. Fleischmann, Meredith Ringel Morris, and Danna Gurari,” a one-size-fits-all approach
in teaching refers to a standardized method where the same instructional strategies,
materials, and assessments are used for all students, regardless of their individual learning
needs, preferences, or contexts. This approach assumes that all students will benefit equally
from a uniform teaching style and content delivery.
In the context of image description technologies, this approach would mean providing the
same type and level of detail in image descriptions for all users, without considering their
specific needs or the particular context in which they encounter the images. However,
research has shown that this method can be inadequate, especially for people who are blind
or visually impaired (BLV), as it often fails to address their unique requirements for
understanding and interpreting images. Instead, a more effective approach involves tailoring
the content and detail of descriptions based on the specific scenarios and preferences of the
users, ensuring that the provided information is both relevant and helpful in each unique
context.

1.2 Why have some researchers questioned the effectiveness of a one-size-fits-all
approach for image descriptions, particularly for people who are blind or visually
impaired (BLV)? Provide specific reasons mentioned in the passage to support your
answer.
In the passage:
Insufficient Detail
One-size-fits-all descriptions often fail to provide the necessary level of detail that BLV users
need to fully understand the image. This can leave users with an incomplete understanding
of the visual content.
Excessive Detail
Conversely, these descriptions can sometimes provide too much detail, overwhelming the
user with information that may not be relevant or useful to their context or needs.
Irrelevant Information
Descriptions may not address the specific visual questions that BLV users have about an
image. This can result in frustration as the provided information does not meet their
particular informational goals.
Lack of Contextual Relevance
BLV users often need descriptions that are tailored to the context in which the image is
encountered. A one-size-fits-all approach does not consider the source of the image or the
specific scenario in which the user is engaging with it, leading to less effective descriptions.
Purpose and Utility
One-size-fits-all descriptions may not help BLV users understand the purpose of the image
in context, such as why it is included in a particular setting or how it relates to the
surrounding content.
