Body | NEW FOREIGN LANGUAGE TIPSHEET FOR BLIND AND LOW VISION STUDENTS http://www.miusa.org/ncde/tipsheets/foreignlang#students-with-visual-impairments-1 . The National Clearinghouse on Disability and Exchange collaboratively developed a new tipsheet on students who are blind and visually impaired learning foreign languages. It includes: * Uses of assistive technologies and Braille in learning foreign languages and their capabilities in handling world languages * How teachers can prepare for, adapt teaching styles, modify class activities, and provide accommodations to students who are blind or have low vision * Issues particular to learning a foreign language that does not use the Roman/Latin alphabet * Considerations for students who are blind or visually impaired in selecting different types of course structures, self-learning modules and foreign language programs overseas. This information is part of a larger "Foreign Languages and Students with Learning, Vision and Hearing Disabilities" resource sheet online at: www.miusa.org/ncde/tipsheets/foreignlang . |
