Abstract
This study aimed to examine the experiences of visually impaired students in utilizing NonVisual Desktop Access (NVDA) as a medium for English language learning in an inclusive
classroom at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Ponorogo, Indonesia. This research used a qualitative
method with a case study approach. Three visually impaired students were sampled for the
study. Data collection was conducted through an interview and observation method. The
data was analyzed qualitatively with the help of thematic analysis. The research was also
guided by the Technology Acceptance Model and the Constructivist Learning Theory. The
study found that NVDA is an effective medium for English language learning for visually
impaired students. It helps the students access English language texts easily. NVDA also helps
the students to be independent and build confidence in completing English language learning
tasks. However, the research also found that NVDA has some limitations. It cannot handle
non-text and multimodal content such as images, tables, graphs, and visually dense
presentation materials. The research concluded that NVDA is not only an assistive
technology but also a pedagogical support for English language learners.
