An Invitation to Share...

This guide is intended as an ongoing dynamic project. The success will largely rely upon feedback from those involved in the education of students who have visual impairments. Those of us who have been have involved in the development have contributed our individual and collective expertise in articulating the "what, when, and how" technology supports students in meeting curriculum goals. We have had differences of opinion and there have been healthy debates! Often we have found consensus. Best practices evolves from innovations in the field. We recognize that what works for one student and in one particular situation may not be appropriate for another. We need to share our collective experiences and expertise in order that we can all learn from each other. We invite you to provide us with feedback and with suggestions on how the guide can be improved. We expect to update this guide and would appreciate any additional reference materials and / or teaching strategies you would like to share.
