Setup

Print or hand-copy the essential prompt for Accessible Event Design Firm, then set out only paper, pencils, and the common or recycled items needed for one test. Use a tabletop representation whenever the original version mentions a room, specialized device, or digital tool; the learning comes from the decisions and evidence, not elaborate scenery.

Activity

  1. Walk through the mock event floor plan and predict which areas will be hardest for guests with mobility, vision, or hearing needs to use.
  2. Redesign the floor plan with wider paths, better signage placement, or seating changes to address the predicted gaps.
  3. Walk a guest figure through the new plan, find one path still creates a bottleneck or barrier, and revise the layout again.
  4. Present the final accessible event plan, pointing out each specific fix and why it matters.
