Evaluating the tools that we use to share materials is important to improve the quality of learning. There are some media that we can evaluate, for instance: power point presentation, CD product, online learning, pictures, audio, etc. These media are evaluated from some perspectives, for example: the hardware/software, display of content and effectiveness in learning. In this paper, media evaluation will discuss the evaluation process of instructional multimedia product about reading comprehension in English proficiency course for college students.

This condition motivates lectures to adapt specific instructional design to support classroom activities.  There are 4 important components in designing instructional design for students with visual impairment, such as students' characteristics, learning objective, method and assessment. The design should be adapted to fully support their inclusion in the classroom. By designing instructional design for students with visual impairments, it is expected that they will be able to comprehend the material and to increase their motivation in learning English.  This paper aimed to understand appropriate instructional design for students with visual impairment. This paper also provides study cases in Inclusion English Class at university level where students with visual impairment and sighted students study at the same classroom. By discussing this issue, it is expected that every lecture recognize basic characteristics of students with visual impairment and choose the appropriate instructional design to accommodate all character of students.
